The year is 1955 and a promising new play is headed for Broadway. The most accomplished member of the cast, Wiletta Mayer, has entertained audiences for decades, bringing both wisdom and insight as the preeminent Black actress of her time. However, nothing could prepare her for the culture clash that erupts between the director and her fellow cast members in rehearsals for this new, “progressive” play. As the curtain rises, witness them grapple with the fraught dynamics of power, race, and ego, onstage and off. Visionary playwright Alice Childress was far ahead of her time when Trouble in Mind first debuted in 1955.
This show is rated PG-13. Set in 1957, it addresses themes of racism, sexism, identity, and class, and contains strong profanity and racially offensive terms. This production contains the use of haze.
