Breakdown

The Mountaintop is a two person drama about the last day of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The entire play is set in the Lorraine hotel room, the evening before his assassination. King is alone, trying to create yet another powerful speech. When he orders a cup of coffee from room service, a mysterious woman arrives, bringing much more than a late-night beverage. What follows is a reflective, often funny, often touching conversation in which Dr. King examines his achievements, his failures, and his unfinished dreams.

Seeking the following role only:

CAMAE
African-American Female, Mid 20s to late 30s. Needs to be a strong actor who can perform with a southern dialect. Camae has lived a very serious street life, but has not been made cynical by the experience. After all, she has been admitted to heaven (conditionally). She still has a tender heart.
