This evening, two colleagues and I went to 4 by 4 Plays produced by extraordinarily gifted and hard-working Kim McMillon. Powerful plays:  “Under Burning White Sky” by Boadiba; “The Murder of Mother Mike” by Claire Ortalda; “Jack In Ghost-Town” by Gerald Nicosia; “Bathroom Graffiti Queen” by Opal Palmer Adisa.  Carla Blank directed three of the four plays; Hal Gelb directed ” Jack In Ghost-Town”

From the 4 plays, respectively,  I learned something about the people of Haiti; related to the simple question “How are you?”; appreciated Chuck Heinrichs’s portrayal as the aging Jack Kerouac; touched by the messages of a homeless woman.

I am so glad I went. The actors all did a fine job.  Great fun seeing Teasha Gable (related to author Alice Wilson-Fried) and Ayodele “Wordslanger” Nzinga in lead roles in “The Murder of Mother Mike” and “Bathroom Graffiti Queen”
