If you’re a fan of Keeye and Peele or are OG and reminisce about the days of In Living Color, you won’t want to miss Face Off Theatre Company’s experiential theatre event in this at once electrifying, discomforting and delightful – an interactive theatrical experience. It is satire at its best. 

The Colored Museum has electrified, discomforted, and delighted audiences of all colors, redefining our ideas of what it means to be Black in contemporary America. Its eleven “exhibits” undermine Black stereotypes old and new and return to the facts of what being Black means.

“Brings forth a bold new voice that is bound to shake up blacks and whites with separate-but-equal impartiality. True satire." – Newsweek​
​
In partnership with The Kalamazoo Civic Theatre

THE 2025 SEASON

Picture

Face Off Theatre Company is thrilled to present our 2025 season, a powerful lineup of shows that delve deep into the theme of identity. At our theatre company, we believe that exploring and celebrating one's identity is a transformative and empowering experience.

​Through these vibrant and immersive productions, we aim to provide a platform for artists of color to share their stories, while also engaging and inspiring our diverse community. 

Picture
"Unwavering commitment to excellence is clear. By consistently producing powerfully relevant and necessary work that no one else in the region is doing, they’re raising important questions and dialogue about race in America — primarily generated by people of color. And it’s perhaps the only company in the state fully committed to this work."
