About this event

“A canny blend of finely sculpted autobiography and documentary facts cohesively shaped into a compelling narrative…With its commanding central performance, gripping story and accomplished presentation, A White Man’s Guide to Rikers Island is a rewarding experience.” – TheatreScene.net

“Intelligent, fascinating…extraordinarily vivid and incredibly informative.” – Ewing Reviewing


"Entertaining, intriguing and expertly delivered. A worthwhile and gripping story that holds your attention and leaves you thinking twice about anything that might possibly land you in the clink.” -- Theater Pizzazz

Based on a true story, after a bad decision and a tragic twist of fate, a white man from an affluent, New Jersey town ends up in Rikers Island, completely out of his element. He struggles to navigate his way through the penal system in the company of his cellmates. Beyond the jail politics, he must reconcile the need to fight for his survival with the guilt that consumes his every waking hour.
