Directed by Lisa Gaye DixonNovember 15-16, 18-22 at 7:30 PM | November 22 at 2:30 PM | Recital Hall / AR 217
Goodnight, Tyler is a poignant and unexpectedly humorous ghost story about memory, grief, and the fight for control over a legacy. After Tyler Evans, a young Black man, is killed by a police officer, his ghost lingers—desperate to be remembered for his life, not just his death. As his best friend, fiancée, grandmother, and others grapple with their own versions of Tyler, tensions rise over who gets to define his story. This moving contemporary drama explores love, loss, and the personal and political weight of remembrance.
“Goodnight, Tyler” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.comTickets
