A gripping re-imagination of events the night before the assassination of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. On April 3, 1968, after delivering one of his most memorable speeches, an exhausted Dr. King retires to his room at the Lorraine Motel while a storm rages outside. When a mysterious stranger arrives with some surprising news, King is forced to confront his destiny and his legacy.

WHY SEE THIS SHOW:  One of the most produced plays of the last 15 years, we’re finally bringing it to Greenville. Written by Tony-nominated playwright Katori Hall, this is a moving and surprising take on MLK. What starts out as a realistic drama slowly becomes something bigger, and it is in these moments that the play truly transcends what you may or may not think of MLK. It’s a play that illustrates sometimes it’s helpful to humanize our heroes.

With a cannot-miss ending that adds to the surprise, this is a drama with humor and insight that illuminates a vitally important moment in American history. Given our audience’s love for our recent history plays (ASSASSINS, THE LEHMAN TRILOGY) this will be another can’t miss production.

WHO SHOULD SEE THIS SHOW?  If you enjoyed PIPELINE, ALL MY SONS, IN THE NEXT ROOM OR THE VIBRATOR PLAY, “The Crown,” “The Great,” “Underground Railroad,” or Selma.
