About this event

Step into the world of FABULATION, where ambition collides with reality in a whirlwind of social satire. Join Undine Barnes Calles, a bold and determined African American woman, as she navigates the aftermath of her husband's sudden disappearance and the embezzlement of her fortune. Pregnant and facing the brink of ruin, Undine seeks solace in her childhood home in Brooklyn's Walt Whitman projects, only to confront a harsh new truth.

In this captivating tale, witness Undine's journey as she confronts adversity with wit and resilience, transforming setbacks into triumphs in her quest to reclaim her place in the world. FABULATION offers a hilarious twist on the classic comeuppance story, weaving humor and heart into every scene.

Winner of the prestigious 2005 Obie Award, FABULATION has captivated audiences since its original production by Playwrights Horizons in 2004, and most recently by Signature Theatre in 2018. Don't miss your chance to experience this unforgettable theatrical gem.

The Billie Holiday Theatre

The AUDELCO and Obie Award-winning Billie Holiday Theatre is artistic anchor to the largest African American community in the nation: Central Brooklyn and one of the last remaining theaters forged in the aesthetic and sociocultural kiln of America’s Civil Rights/Black Arts Movements. Founded in May 1972, The Billie Holiday Theatre is a beacon for world class art rooted in racial justice in the heart of Bed-Stuy: producing, presenting, and commissioning new and classic works and festivals in theater, dance, music, visual arts, and film; providing artistic and institutional residencies; and serving ages 3 to 103 with educational programming. For bold and daring artists and audiences from around the corner and around the world who look to The Billie as a rigorous artistic space that tackles racial injustices, presents new and unapologetic voices, and imagines a world where all people can flourish...welcome home.
