Photos: First look at Red Herring Theater's THE NICETIES

Zoe, a black student at a liberal arts college, is called into her white professor's office to discuss her paper about slavery and its effect on the American Revolution. What begins as a polite clash in perspectives explodes into an urgent debate about race, history, and power.

Written by Eleanor Burgess, Directed by Nancy Shelton Williams, the Cast: ZOE: Latifat Sulaimon, JANINE: Shelly Riggs

The Niceties performances run Aug 18 thru Sept 4, 2022, at Red Herring Theater, 3723 S. High St. Columbus, Ohio. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit: https://www.redherringtheater.org/
