awards for excellence in black theatre, including those for the best
dramatic production and playwright of the year.
What a wonderful, masterful performance! The six women who presented this play were so utterly professional, so totally believable; the audience was genuinely swept up in that rarified "suspension of disbelief" from the first moment to the last.
Thank you, ladies!
For all those who did not visit the ARTS @ ST. LUKE'S one of the two past weekends: you missed an amazing piece of theater!
