Celebrating Black History Month – The Sound of Gospel celebrates and honors Black History Month. The show is produced by playwright, producer, and director William Pierce of 2nd Chance Outreach; directed by Academy Award-nominated vocalist, actress, and playwright Jevetta Steele; with musical direction by the Grammy Award-winning Billy Steele – both of the renowned family The Steeles.
“We are excited about the production’s evolution since premiering at the 2018 National Baptist Convention held at the Minneapolis Convention Center. It highlights Gospel music’s historical aspects and how it has been an integral part of the African American experience. The show is celebratory and thought provoking,” said Rev. William Pierce, the creator, writer and producer.
The Sound of Gospel takes the audience on an expansive historical journey featuring work and freedom songs, ring shouts, Negro spirituals, choirs and quartets, up to today’s contemporary and urban gospel. Elements of drama and joy resonate throughout the production.
