Reading of The Mountaintop by Katori Hall at American Stage Theatre Company

Theres a storm brewing at the Lorraine Motel. And the electricity in room 306 may just overpower the lightning outside, as a weary hero receives a smoke and a reality check from a mysterious housekeeper; both of them roiled by the repercussions. A growing moment of connection, unpredicted and unpredictable. Its a conversation about racism and justice and holey socks. About the divergent paths of legacy, and how sometimes a great man is also human. A riveting, poetic journey through Martin Luther King Jr.s missing minutes on April 3, 1968. Presented in partnership with Todays Church Tampa Bay.
