  3. The Green Book


In the days of Jim Crow laws, the “Green Book” let black tourists know where it was safe to dine and stay overnight, the “tourist homes” or private residences made available by African American homeowners. Set in 1953, this stirring new drama by Atlanta writer Calvin Alexander Ramsey takes place in just such a home, in Jefferson City, MO, where a black military officer, his wife and a Jewish holocaust survivor all spend the night only hours before W.E.B. Du Bois is scheduled to deliver a speech in town.
