About this Event
Some stories don’t end, they wait until someone calls them back into the room.
Tea Cakes with Zora Neale Hurston is a live, in-person performance of the one-woman show, Passion Dey Couldn’t Steal, a lyrical, embodied storytelling experience that brings Zora’s voice, humor, and fierce humanity to life.
This is not a lecture.
This is not a staged reading.
It is an intimate afternoon of remembrance, Southern ritual, and living history that includes the voices of Zora’s birth mother, Lucy Ann Potts-Hurston and the Pulitzer Prize winning author Alice Walker.
Zora is remembered not as a distant literary icon, but as a woman in the room, laughing, telling the truth, and reminding us who we are.
In the spirit of her beloved novel Their Eyes Were Watching God, guests will also share in a Southern tradition honoring Tea Cake, because stories are meant to be heard, felt, and tasted.
