Fat Ham

By James Ijames
Directed by Charles Grant

A week after Juicy’s father dies, he finds himself at a backyard barbecue celebrating the marriage of his mother and uncle—sound familiar? James Ijames’s Pulitzer Prize-winning reimagining of Hamlet casts the sweet prince of Denmark as a queer, Black boy from the South. In this comedy born from tragedy, Juicy must choose between seeking vengeance for his father’s death or staying true to his own heart—a story of identity, family, and liberation as we become our truest selves.

Written and Performed By Kristina Wong
A co-production with Boom Arts

In a SNAPpy (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, that is!) musical comedy like no other, Kristina Wong, self-proclaimed #FoodBankInfluencer gives us a karaoke fueled education on America’s emergency food system. After experiencing the lacking food distribution from New York to the Navajo Nation, Kristina Wong returns, as only she can, with this hilariously irreverent examination of food insecurity, government assistance, and grassroot solutions to global issues.

“This social commentary — both fierce and darkly funny — was the theater experience I didn’t know I needed.” — PDX Parent
