Black Bastard by Jon Gentry

BLACK BASTARD, the award-winning solo show by Jon Gentry, transports us to 1990s Houston in a humorous, heartfelt coming-of-age story shaped by curiosity, imagination, and survival. When his family fractures, Jon is thrust into the role of “man of the house,” launching a search for identity in a world eager to define him before he can define himself. Through literature, clowning, original song, and a kaleidoscope of characters, Gentry creates a theatrical landscape that is as playful as it is piercing, blending 90s nostalgia with sharp socio-cultural insight. As he searches for his absent father, Jon must confront not only what he might find, but who he is becoming.
