When Cleo uses her anonymous Twitter account @INCOGNEGRO to ignite an online protest against cultural appropriation, threads of overwhelming digital backlash quickly ensue. As the lines between virtual identities and real lives begin to blur, the mounting pressure threatens to unravel Cleo and Kara’s friendship. seven methods of killing kylie jenner blends theatre with the online language of Twitter and the 21st Century—memes, gifs, and emojis—to explore the complexities of Black identity, white exploitation, and the volatile nature of social media activism. 

This play is directed by Jasmine Brooks and features Lauren Walker as Cleo and Cindy De La Cruz as Kara.

In the creative team, stage management is led by Ty Ruwe, scenic design by Patrick Blanchard, sound design by Constant Dzah, projection design by Doaa Ouf, costume design by Rea Brown, lighting design by Ankit Pandey, and the show is produced by Andrew Aaron Valdez.
