Wild with Happy

Heartfelt l Magical l Witty
By Colman Domingo
Directed by ShawnJ West

When the process of grieving his mother involves an overly enthusiastic funeral director, and a demanding Aunt Glo, there’s nowhere for Gil to turn but a wild grab-an-urn-and-go roadtrip to find his fairytale ending. From the mind of Colman Domingo comes a wondrous dramedy about the sometimes bizarre and often inexplicable bonds of family.

ABOUT THE CREATIVE TEAM

Colman Domingo (Playwright, pronouns: he/him) is a Tony®, Oscar, Sir Lawrence Olivier, Drama Desk, Drama League and NAACP Theatre Award nominated, OBIE, and Lucille Lortel Award winning actor, playwright, director and producer. His plays include A Boy and His Soul, Up Jumped Springtime, and The Brothers, and he has co-written two musicals: SUMMER: The Donna Summer Musical, and Lights Out: Nat “King” Cole. Colman received his Honorary Doctorate in Humane Letters from Ursinus College. He is on the faculty of University of Southern California School of Dramatic Arts as a Professor of acting, having served as a Juilliard School Creative Associate and a faculty member of the Yale School of Drama. Colman has appeared in some of the most profound films in recent years such as Barry Jenkins’ If Beale Street Could Talk, Steven Spielbergs’ Lincoln, Lee Daniel’s The Butler, Ava DuVernay’s Selma, Nia DaCosta’s Candyman, and Janicza Bravo’s Zola, Rustin by Julian Breece and Dustin Lance Black, and most recently Sing Sing by Greg Kwedar, and Clint Bentley.

ShawnJ West (Director, pronouns: he/him/diva) is a director/actor whose credits are many! Acting since high school and directing since 2008, with directing being his greatest joy. Directing the we are continuous West Coast regional premiere at NCTC in 2023 is a career highlight, and returning to the stage tapping his heart out in Unpacking in P’town was joyous. Now he just wishes people get his name right: ShawnJ, one word, no space, period or middle initial. Thanks ever so!
