Beginning previews October 21st, The Public Theater celebrates the official opening of Eve’s Song by Patricia Ione Lloyd on November 7th.
Eve’s Song follows the haunting of a Black family. Deborah (De’Adre Aziza) is dealing with a messy divorce and coming to terms with her daughter, Lauren (Kadijah Raquel), coming out as queer, all while trying to keep things “normal” at home. The play takes a look at our present racial climate through an everyday family, addressing family dynamics, politics at work, and the spirit world, using dark humor and suspense.
The cast includes Karl Green as Mark, Ashley D. Kelley as Upendo, Vernice Miller as Spirit Woman, Rachel Watson-Jih as Spirit Woman, and Tamara M. Williams as Spirit Woman.
The production extended on Oct 9th before previews even began and will run through December 9 as is directed by Jo Bonney. [envira-gallery id=”20924″]
