FIREHOUSE NEW PLAYS

PRESS

Written by Kristen Adele Calhoun

Directed by Tiffany Nichole Greene

The captivating and inspiring life of John Mitchell Jr. stands as a poignant reminder of the tumultuous journey that the United States has undertaken throughout its history. His story is a reflection of the deep-rooted history of Richmond, encapsulating the horrors of slavery and the Civil War, the struggle for emancipation and reconstruction, the Jim Crow era, the civil rights movement, and the post-Obama era. The seeds planted during the reconstruction era cannot be disregarded if we want to unite as a nation.

Come out to Firehouse Theatre for mimosas and bagels and participate in the creative process of making a new play.
First Drafts and Bagels brings together playwrights, directors, performers, and you to hear, then talk about, new plays.
