LA Theatre Works Presents RFK: THE JOURNEY TO JUSTICE At The Phillips Center

In L.A. Theatre Works' audio docudrama RFK: The Journey to Justice, audiences can relive the 1960s and explore the turbulent and intriguing relationship between Robert F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. during the Civil Rights Movement. A relationship that helped shape the America we know today. RFK: The Journey to Justice comes to the Phillips Center Thursday, February 4, 7:30 p.m.

RFK: The Journey to Justice is a behind-the-scenes story of a high-stakes political drama that dared the country and its citizens to look into the mirror - and change. Robert Kennedy had an early mistrust of Dr. Martin Luther King and his tactics, but became one of the Civil Rights Movement's greatest champions. Through Kennedy's transformative experience the victories, and defeats of that era are retold for a new generation. Commissioned by L.A. Theatre Works and a collaboration of university arts presenters including Stanford and Notre Dame.
