DESCRIPTION:Are 9-1-1 calls against black and brown people hate crimes? The verdict of 
 “Guilty” or “Not Guilty” rests in the hands of the jurors. \n\nOn 
 the eve of the court’s decision the doors open into the bedrooms of the 
 prosecutors, defendants, key witnesses, BBQ Becky and Permit Patty. What 
 happens behind closed doors in matters of race can no longer be hidden when 
 everybody’s dirty laundry is exposed.\n\nWritten and directed by Bay Area 
 playwright Jovelyn Richards and starring a cast of local actors, this new 
 play is based on real life 9-1-1 calls.\n\n9-1-1 What’s Your Emergency? 
 premiered as a one-act play at La Peña Cultural Center in 2018 as an 
 artistic response to the local 9-1-1 calls that made BBQ Becky and Permit 
 Patty infamous on a national level. Act one examined how the 9-1-1 call is 
 rooted in “micro-aggression”, yet can have irreparable consequences to 
 communities of color.\n\nWe are so pleased to be presenting a 
 groundbreaking second act, “The Verdict”, premiering April 26-27, 2019, 
 which further examines the intersection of structural racism and personal 
 psychological narratives that propel the calls.\n
