Sadie and Bessie Delany, each having passed the century mark, gained international recognition in 1991 when their book HAVING OUR SAY (with NY Times writer Amy Hill Hearth) spent six months on the best-seller lists. In the play by Emily Mann, the audience is invited to spend an evening with Sadie and Bessie, two VERY old ladies whose infectious charm and intelligence guides us through a century and a half of America's social history. Their recounting of family stories about the changes witnessed by the Delany family from slavery through the close of the
twentieth century vividly recalls the painfully slow progress of race relations in the United States.
