BLACK WHEN I WAS A BOY – PART II BLACKED OUT by Cooper Bates at the Hollywood Fringe Festival

Sage Black Productions presents BLACK WHEN I WAS A BOY – PART II BLACKED OUT by Cooper Bates, a Hollywood Fringe Festival selection, directed by Frankie Louise.

Cooper Bates arrives in Dallas, Texas from a small town with big ambitions and his eyes set on making it in the entertainment industry. Shortly after arriving, he is introduced to Mr. Pope, a mid-level, out-of-the-box-thinking businessman and shepherd of young talent. While Pope grooms and imparts wisdom to the young Kansas native, everything goes well for the two until it begins to go very wrong. Bad advice followed by an even worse choice changes the lives of both men, leading to the total devastation of their relationship and leaving Cooper at odds with the value of his life.
