The Amen Corner

Rated "B"

Our revival of James Baldwin’s The Amen Corner will be a singing, preaching extravaganza! 

Sister Margaret, a revered pastor, is facing crises all round. Her husband's dying. Her son is leaving. And while her family breaks down at home, church elders are plotting to take over the church she founded. 

Directed by Philip A. Burrows and Erin T. Knowles and with musical direction by Adrian Archer, this play features unmissable performances by Arthellia Isaacs, Jovanna Hepburn, Dion Johnson, Hartman O. N. Brown and Robert Farquharson among others.
