Written in 1954, by the incomparable James Baldwin, this play deals with a self-anointed Harlem store front preacher, Margaret Alexander, who is the leader of her flock and about to see her world crumble. Son David her church organist, is set on following in the footsteps of his father, jazz musician Luke. When the errant husband and father comes home to die, Sister Margaret finds herself losing everything but coming to terms with her own true sense of faith. This three act play, will connect you to the soul of gospel music.
