About this Event

On July 8th,1944, Private Booker T. Spicely was headed back home to Camp Butner after enjoying an evening in the Hayti neighborhood of Durham. He was unaware it would be his last. In the darkness of that night, he would become yet another victim of Jim Crow “justice.”

A fully produced performance of a new play focusing on the events leading up to and following the M**der of Private Booker T. Spicely, following the 80th anniversary of his death.

The play was commissioned by The Booker T. Spicely Committee, funded by Duke Energy and co-produced by StreetSigns Center for Literature and Performance and The Kenan Institute for Ethics’ America’s Hallowed Ground Project.

Performed by Mike Wiley. Directed by Joseph Megel. Music composed and performed by Corbie Hill.

General Admission: $20

Senior/Student: $10 (use promo code "Senior/Student" at checkout)
