Dynamic and reaffirming drama production brings spotlight to Nashville theater circle. Sunday’s presentation will include a cast talkback at the play’s conclusion. An original production by Jeff Obafemi Carr, staged at the Amun Ra Theater, the play is a product of the theater’s own New Playwrights Series and is part of the ART 2009 Step Into the Future Season.
The Amun Ra Theater features a small intimate atmosphere which fosters a personal connection between the actors and the audience. Seating just 45 patrons at a setting, the impact of presentations is moving and irresistible. Neighborhood theater is meant to be like this. As this will be the closing performance for this play, there will be a cast talkback session which will afford the lucky theatergoers an opportunity to discuss the play’s many facets, unique characters and characteristics with the actual performers and the director. A feature not generally available with large scale productions. Drama enthusiasts are strongly encouraged to make plans to attend this moving and tender production. It promises to be a Sunday afternoon well spent.Directions to the theater from Veterans Plaza:
