It's The Ballad of Emmett Till. He was a black 14-year-old boy from Chicago who was killed in Mississippi in the late 1950s, there was a trial, those sorts of things. Based on a true story. The play seems pretty interesting but the process, but us backstage, was pretty grueling - lots of indecisiveness and artistic differences from those in charge. Ugh!
From the song "Through the wire" written by Kanye West after facial reconstructive surgery after a bad car accident:
"I drink a boost for breakfast, and ensure for dizzert Somebody ordered pancakes I just sip the sizzurp That right there could drive a sane man bizzerk Not to worry y'll Mr. H 2 the Izzo's back to wizzerk How do you console my mom or give her light support When you telling her your sons' on life support And just imagine how my girl feel On the plane scared as hell that her guy look like Emmett Till"

Now I know what it means!
