FIREHOUSE NEW PLAYS PRESS Written by Kristen Adele Calhoun Directed by Tiffany Nichole Greene The captivating and inspiring life of John Mitchell Jr. stands as a poignant reminder of the tumultuous journey that the United States has undertaken throughout its history. His story is a reflection of the deep-rooted history of Richmond, encapsulating the horrors of slavery and the Civil War, the struggle for emancipation and reconstruction, the Jim Crow era, the civil rights movement, and the post-Obama era. The seeds planted during the reconstruction era cannot be disregarded if we want to unite as a nation. Come out to Firehouse Theatre for mimosas and bagels and participate in the creative process of making a new play. First Drafts and Bagels brings together playwrights, directors, performers, and you to hear, then talk about, new plays. Dramaturgy and Show Discussion Facilitation by Claire Wittman Saturday, June 13th at 12p Tickets
