Fans of films may find The Jewelry Box: San Francisco Playhouse especially interesting thanks to its engaging atmosphere, visual presentation, and entertainment value.
In this hilariously heartwarming story, a prequel to Copeland’s hit solo show Not a Genuine Black Man, a young Brian heads to the “mean streets” of Oakland to buy his mom a Christmas present. When he finds the perfect gift – a jewelry box in the White Front store – six-year-old Brian sets out to earn the required $11.97 by Christmas Eve.
