Share Description
The African Company Presents Richard The III, written by Carlyle Brown and directed by Curtis Lovell. Based on true events, this play tells the story of the first Black theatrical troupe in America putting on a production of Richard III, while white uptown producer, Stephen Price, threatened by the competition, sets about shutting them down at all costs.
The African Company Presents Richard III carries a timeless message on the challenge of negotiating racial consciousness in theater that still resonates today.
