City Theater Company to Host Zoom/YouTube Reading of AFTER BIRTH OF A NATION

By: Chloe Rabinowitz Apr. 20, 2020

City Theater Company of Wilmington, Delaware, is hosting a Zoom/YouTube reading of AFTER BIRTH OF A NATION tonight (4/20) at 7:15. You can stream the reading by visiting http://city-theater.org/.

Synopsis:

On the night of the first-ever White House movie screening, First Daughter Margaret Wilson must find a way to break with her past and become her own woman. Yet at the showing of the infamous epic The Birth of a Nation she is forced to fend off advances from a young minister, confront racial intolerance, and somehow live up to her duty to her father and to her country without completely losing her mind.

For many, the wild and unpredictable ride of a roller coaster is exhilarating and euphoric, while for others, it is traumatic and elicits multiple phobic fears. The musical RIDE THE CYCLONE is very much like a roller coaster in that the mindset of the viewer makes all the difference. Labeled as a “wildly original new musical – part comedy, part tragedy, and wholly unexpected,” is RIDE THE CYCLONE worth the price of a ticket?

THE MUSIC MAN National Tour is Coming to The Playhouse on Rodney Square

The National Tour of The Music Man will present at Wilmington's Playhouse on Rodney Square, directed by Matt Lenz with choreography by Emmy winner Joshua Bergasse. Tickets start at $60.

Review: 1776 at Walnut Street Theatre

The Walnut Street Theatre’s opening night production of 1776 is, quite simply, magnificent. It arrives not merely as a theatrical event, but as something more essential—an experience that feels necessary.
