“Some of the vital work in American theater”
– New York Times

Broadway’s best new musical
– The Washington Post

The Tony Award–winning musical comes direct from Broadway to San Francisco! Meet Usher: a Black, queer writer writing a musical about a Black, queer writer writing a musical about a Black, queer writer. Winner of the Tony Award for Best Musical, Michael R. Jackson’s Pulitzer Prize–winning, blisteringly funny work of art exposes the heart and soul of a young artist grappling with desires, identity, and instincts he both loves and loathes. Hell-bent on breaking free of his own self-perception, Usher wrestles with the thoughts in his head, brought to life on stage by a hilarious, straight-shooting ensemble.

Malachi McCaskill (Usher) is excited to be making his A.C.T. debut in the Tony Award–winning, hit Broadway musical A Strange Loop! This North Carolina native hails from Jackson Springs, NC. He took his dreams of being on Broadway to Greensboro, NC, where he is a current junior obtaining Bachelor’s in Fine Arts degree in Musical Theatre at the University of North Carolina Greensboro. Through his years in college, McCaskill has been working throughout North Carolina and in his school’s program. Some credits include: The SpongeBob Musical (Ensemble, u/s Patrick and Krabs), Rock of Ages (Lonny Barnett), Dontrell, Who Kissed the Sea (Dontrell Jones Jr.), and Godspell (John the Baptist/Judas) at UNC Greensboro; The Color Purple (Ensemble) at The Barn Dinner Theatre; and Beautiful: The Carole King Musical (Swing) and Elf The Musical (Macys Store Manager) at The North Carolina Theatre!
