Regina Taylor's CROWNS Gospel Musical Set for Theatre Goodman 6/30 to 8/5
By: James T Harding
Crowns, written and directed by ReGina Taylor and adapted from the book by Michael Cunningham and Craig Marberry will play June 30 – August 5, 2012 In the Albert at Theatre Goodman.
When Chicago-born Yolanda relocates to the South after the death of her brother, she finds strength in the tales of the wise women who surround her-and the powerful rituals connected to their dazzling hats. Fusing the music of the South with rich storytelling and abundant "hattitude", Crowns is a jubilant celebration of song, dance, cultural history-and glamorous headwear.
