TCC Roper Performing Arts Center Tidewater Community College Jeanne and George Roper Performing Arts Center located at 340 Granby St,

The TCC Jeanne and George Roper Performing Arts Center occupies the former Loew's State Theater building in the revitalized downtown Norfolk, Virginia. Built in elegant style in 1926, Tidewater Community College lovingly restored this former movie palace and Vaudeville house to its original opulence. Featuring sumptuous surroundings with gilded box seats, glass chandeliers and ornate, hand painted

architectural details, the Roper has been lauded by theater critics as "A cathedral to the past". The Roper now hosts the range of the performing arts as well as feature films and college convocations, commencements and symposia. Comfortably seating up to 900 guests, this vibrant centerpiece of the downtown entertainment district has been fitted out with state-of-the-art technology, enabling the production of the most complex and demanding staged presentations.

Award-winning producer and playwright Terrance Afer-Anderson’s play, Cast in History, was originally commissioned by the City of Norfolk as a historical tribute to the City's rich African-American history. This sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant series of monologues by actors portraying local historical Black notables will be professionally produced by the TCC Roper Performing Arts Center in film and premiered on YouTube Live. A live Q&A by the actors and other artists involved in its making will immediately follow.

"Cast in History" is part of TCC's Arts & Humanities Pathway series "My Voice. My Thoughts. My Art." A curated collection of music, visual arts, literary, and theatrical programming, each event will explore themes of diversity, adversity, inequality, social justice, and empowerment during this time of social change.

Every event is free and open to the public.
