This powerful and thought-provoking theatre is adapted from interviews the author conducted with St. Louis area residents who lived through the civil unrest resulting from the 2014 police shooting in Ferguson, Missouri of teenager Michael Brown. A tour de force theatrical journey that builds a sobering brick-by-brick portrait of a society still reckoning with racism in all its insidious forms. The effect is akin to that of a prayer, a poetic plea for understanding and peace that ought to be heard everywhere.
Fleetwood-Jourdain Theatre is at 927 Noyes Steet, Evanston, IL.
