FROM MY HOMETOWN to Wrap The Ensemble Theatre

The Ensemble Theatre presents From My Hometown, a musical celebration of classic rhythm and blues, written by Lee Summers, Ty Stephens, and Herbert Rawlings Jr.

This musical season finale will be directed and choreographed by Patdro Harris with musical direction by Carlton Leake. The teaming of their talents span many years at The Ensemble Theatre resulting in several shows with record breaking attendance including: Ain't Misbehavin, The Wiz, Five Guys Named Moe, Twelve Ways of Christmas, and Cinderella.

From My Hometown tells the story of three wide-eyed strangers, with empty pockets and big dreams who arrive in The Big Apple from Detroit, Memphis and Philly with one goal in mind -- to sing at the world famous Apollo Theater. Teaming up and blending the musical sounds of their hometowns, they form a brotherhood spanning more than a decade. This rags to riches celebration of the American Dream, features Motown and R&B classics including "Chain Gang," "Sitting on the Dock of the Bay" and "Lonely Teardrops."

Featured cast members include Ensemble Theatre veteran actors Anthony Boggess-Glover, who was in the previous hit season finale Sanctified and Ron Johnson, last seen in Cinderella; and newcomer from Washington D.C. Jobari Parker-Namdar.
