2024 Heritage Play: The Sycamores and the Stones! 6:30 pm
Category: School
Date: February 29, 2024
Time: 6:30 PM
Presented by the St. Philips Performing Arts Ensemble
We join the popular, well-to-do family, the Stones in Brooklyn, NY in the summer of 1938. A visit from their southern family (the Sycamores) draws a deep discussion on the social, cultural and political forces which gave rise to the Harlem Renaissance, including the Great Migration. They will debate the influences that inspired the work of the Harlem Renaissance’s and if it is necessary to leave one's past behind in order to evolve. Featuring our guest Musical Director, the Grammy-nominated Geno Young!
