"A window on a world now lost..." - The NY Times

January 26th-February 6th, 2010

Evening Performances: 7:30pm, Saturday Matinees: 2pm

Having Our Say is the oral history of the centenarian sisters Sadie and Bessie Delany and opens as they welcome us into their home. As the story unfolds, we witness the rise of middle income African Americans facing prejudice and discrimination in the South during and after slavery. It is about ordinary people who make extraordinary achievements -- for more than 100 years. This simple story about of two women typifies the essential human condition - of struggle and achievement, universal in its appeal and in the messages it sends. “A window on a world now lost, full of love, a little pain and a wondrous deal of hope.” - The New York Post
