Satchel Paige and The Kansas City Swing is a jazz-infused drama set in 1947, capturing the life of baseball legend Satchel Paige as he navigates the challenges of being overshadowed by Jackie Robinson during the last days of baseball's Negro Leagues. The play features Brian D. Coats as Satchel Paige, alongside Derrick Cobey, Stanley Andrew Jackson, and Ashley LaLonde, among others. Written by Trey Ellis and Ricardo Khan, the story reflects on issues of equality and resilience in a pivotal moment in American history. Directed by Ellis, this reading brings to life a compelling narrative about a pivotal figure in sports.
