The One
By Khari Wyatt
Directed by Denise Yolèn
Featuring: Bryan Keith, Phillip Curry, Nija Okoro, Makeena Rivers, Christian Telesmar, Mildred Langford, Shirley Jordan
The One is a powerful, witty, and provocative drama set against the backdrop of an unprecedented election to determine “the face of the Black community.”
Five candidates—The Politician, The Preacher, The Intellectual, The Influencer, and The Athlete—vie for this symbolic mantle, each bringing their own ambitions, flaws, and platforms to the table. As debates ignite and scandals unravel, the play dives deep into questions of leadership, identity, and unity within a diverse and complex community.
Sharp, heartfelt, and unflinchingly honest, The One is a riveting exploration of who we choose to represent us—and what that choice reveals about ourselves.
