We talk with KPBS theater critic Pat Launer about what San Diego theater has to offer this month.

Tom Fudge: Yellowman is a play about race. But it examines color differences among African Americans. The play also takes a serious look at how domestic violence can leave long-lasting emotional scars. Yellowman is critically acclaimed, and it is one of the plays you might consider seeing this weekend in San Diego.

Joining me for the weekend preview is Pat Launer, the KPBS theater critic.
