WITH MUSIC & LYRICS BY LAURELYN DOSSETT
DIRECTED BY VIVIENNE BENESCH
A NORTH CAROLINA FABLE FOR TODAY
Acclaimed playwright Mike Wiley returns to PlayMakers with singer-songwriter Laurelyn Dossett to explore, through words and music, the cyclical nature of humanity by revealing America’s somewhat-hidden history of racial cleansing after Reconstruction. This unearthing of yesterday yields a hymn for our future, with its glimpse into identity, immigration, and economic struggle—all told through the lens of a small town in North Carolina.
