Etta Mae Mumphries (aka "the Black Forrest Gump") has charmed and rocked audiences everywhere, with her hysterical recollections and witty words of wisdom, leaving her fans "tickled pink." Nobody tells stories like Etta Mae Mumphries. And nobody has met and influenced so many important people! You may not have heard of Etta Mae, but surely you know of Josephine Baker, Billie Holiday, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Sammy Davis, Jr., and the list goes on and on. Known sometimes as the Geriatric Forrest Gump, Miss Etta Mae is a font of biblical wisdom and encourager extraordinaire. Her hilarious words of wisdom will bless your soul and have you in stitches all at the same time. If you are a fan of Dame Edna, Tyler Perrys Madea or your own Grandma you will love Etta Mae. She is topical, rhetorical, and always HYSTERICAL! Enjoy this joyful journey through history, with delightful musical stylings from actor/singer Pam Trotter.June 19 is Juneteenth. We will be having a celebration with refreshments and goodies.Written by Karen Bankhead with additional material by Pam Trotter. Performed by Karen Bankhead. Musical performance by singer Pam Trotter. Directed by Karen Bankhead
