CHRISTIAN ST. CROIX wasn’t given the opportunity to go to college. Like his father and others in the working-class community he grew up in, he earned his living serving the people who did. Theatre was a first love, and writing became a way to correct the lie that lives like his were only about struggle, hustle, and dreams of bigger houses in better neighborhoods. Black and queer, he writes slice-of-life stories where quiet lives are salted with strange wonder. His current cycle of plays, The American Beasts Plays, looks at found family through Americana and includes the award-winning Monsters of the American Cinema and We Are the Forgotten Beasts, an O’Neill finalist. Other produced works include ZACH, We Lovers, and Princes.
