While we build out our new space, we are partnering with venues all over the city to continue programming this spring/summer. Here's what's coming up this summer:
PLAY READING: "The Slave," by Amiri Baraka
Monday, July 22 at 7:30 pm
At FiveMyles | 558 St Johns Pl, Brooklyn, NY 11238
Set in the middle of a race revolution, "The Slave" depicts the fierce struggle of Walker Vessels, a Black father trying to reclaim his daughters from his estranged white wife. Written in 1964 -- the same year as his more well-known "Dutchman" -- "The Slave" has only had one NYC production, as far as we know. Now, more than 50 years later we intend to bring it back into public consciousness. This reading will be free of charge and feature Julian Rozzell, Jr. and Libby King, with direction by Alec Duffy.
