The revival of 'Fresh Prince of Bel-Air' at SF Oasis captures the essence of '90s nostalgia through a vibrant drag performance. Director Snaxx emphasizes the significance of featuring Black performers in a time when television was predominantly white. The show's energy is infectious, enhanced by Major Hammy's charismatic portrayal of Will and Mudd's neurotic Carlton. As audiences engage with the show's campy humor and nostalgic references, they also reflect on how the past can exist independently from later controversies surrounding some of its cast members.
From the moment the show starts at SF Oasis, it feels like stepping into the early '90s - but with a sharper, campier edge.
It's been 35 years since the show catapulted Will Smith into stardom, not to mention ushering in a legacy of Black people in entertainment since the 90s.
