The Mountaintop at Nashville Repertory Theatre

The Mountaintop is a gripping re-imagination of what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s last night on earth could have been. In this work by Tennessee playwright Katori Hall, King is visited by a mysterious and beautiful maid in his room at the Lorraine motel. What begins as a humorous and flirtatious conversation progresses into a soul-searching discussion laying bare the profound humanity of the civil rights leader.
