    Imagine discovering you are not the person you thought you were. That you have a family, a history, an ethnicity you never knew. How would this discovery impact your life, the lives of those around you; your vision of yourself and society?

    Through investigation and a quirk of fate, Michael Fosberg discovers that his father is black…a fact that was somehow lost as he was raised by his mother and adopted father and also hidden since he didn’t "look black.”

    This dramatic performance, based on the true events challenges the audience to examine their own preconceptions of how we each define race, and gives us a better understanding of the importance of embracing and celebrating all of who we are.

    "Fosberg's justly acclaimed show is one of those rare solo pieces that manages to combine a sense of personal revelation with a palpable universal appeal. As in the best of such pieces, Fosberg is enough of an eccentric personality to command the stage for a two-hour show about his own life, yet he's also an everyman figure able to spark empathy as he negotiates a life full of extraordinary people and events." - Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune

    Please Note: The reception for Incognito will be held at Scarritt-Bennett Center at 8:15pm. The play will be performed at the University School of Nashville at 6:30pm.
