This exciting play is written by well known Philadelphia playwright Ed Shockley and features the playwright and director lary moten. This wonderful play takes us on a journey of oppression and freedom that spans from the time of slavery to today we are especially proud to welcome Ed and his work to South Camden Theatre Company."
