Synopsis
A beatbox-musical depicting the professional and emotional issues faced by Black women within the acting industry. CASTE-ING looks unflinchingly at the stories you don’t always hear, the stories people would rather ignore, and the lived experiences that are difficult to put a finger on. It is also a joyful expression of the true nature and beauty of Black women in the industry.
