About this Event
The True Measure Of A Man
This stage play shines a candid light on the realities of living in the Jim Crow South, blending raw truth with sharp wit, humor, and a deep well of love. Through intimate conversations and powerful moments, it explores what it truly means to be a man, husband, father, and friend in a world designed to break you.
Set in Ozark, Alabama, in 1968, The True Measure of a Man follows the life of Willie Diggs, a Black man who may not have finished school but carries a lifetime of wisdom earned through survival. His education comes from struggle, resilience, faith, and an unwavering devotion to family.
Yet through it all, Willie and his family do more than endure. They rise, they persevere, and they thrive!
