Shadow Theatre Presents THE MOUNTAINTOP by Katori Hall

The Mountaintop is a gripping re-imagination of events the night before the assassination of the civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: on April 3, 1968, after delivering one of his most memorable speeches, an exhausted Dr. King retires to his room at the Lorraine Motel while a storm rages outside. When a mysterious stranger arrives with some surprising news, King is forced to confront his destiny, his accomplishments, and his legacy to his people.

Directed by Patricia Darbasie, the creative team includes Assistant Director Alexandra Dawkins; Set Designer Even Gilchrist; Costume Designer Leona Brausen; Video and Sound Designer Dave Clarke; Lighting Designer Jeffrey Osterlin; Stage Manager Nyssa Beairsto; Assistant Stage Manager Erin Hayes; Production Manager Chris Hicks.
