"Theatre Communications Group has mattered so deeply to me for more than 40 years. Here we are not just artists in isolation, this organization or that; we are part of a field, a continent of theater, larger than ourselves." — Todd London

As we approach the close of our fiscal year, we're reflecting on what it means to belong to something larger than ourselves.

Black History Month Day 28
The Mountaintop by Katori Hall (2011)

The Mountaintop is a play by Katori Hall that reimagines the final night of Martin Luther King Jr.'s life, set in his room at the Lorraine Motel on April 3, 1968, after his "I've Been to the Mountaintop" speech. A maid named Camae delivers room service, and their conversation evolves from humorous to profound, forcing King to confront his mortality, legacy, and the future of the Civil Rights Movement. The Olivier Award-winning play offers a fictional, intimate, and often surreal look at the man behind the historical figure, blending reality with fantasy.

Black History Month Day 27
Hurt Village by Katori Hall (2013)

THE STORY: It's the end of a long summer in Hurt Village, a housing project in Memphis, Tennessee. A government Hope Grant means relocation for many of the project's residents, including Cookie, a thirteen-year-old aspiring rapper, along with her mother, Crank, and great-grandmother, Big Mama. As the family prepares to move, Cookie's father, Buggy, unexpectedly returns from a tour of duty in Iraq. Ravaged by the war, Buggy struggles to find a position in his disintegrating community, along with a place in his daughter's wounded heart.
