Cruise Control: Black Joy in Turbulent Waters, written and directed by Deletta Gillespie, is presented as part of the Theatre Morgan LOL! Laugh to Keep from Crying Fall Season, which explores the rich, complex tradition of Black humor as a tool of survival, resistance, and truth-telling. LOL! invites audiences to laugh out loud while thinking deeply. It’s a celebration of the brilliance, resilience, and sheer audacity of finding joy in the face of adversity—because sometimes, you really do have to laugh to keep from crying.
