Photo Coverage: Public Theater Celebrates Opening Night of EVE'S SONG

EVE'S SONG, written by Patricia Ione Lloyd and directed by Jo Bonney, opened just last night at The Public Theater and runs through Sunday, December 9.

The complete cast of EVE'S SONG features De'Adre Aziza (Deborah), Karl Green (Mark), Ashley D. Kelley (Upendo), Vernice Miller (Spirit Woman), Kadijah Raquel (Lauren), Rachel Watson-Jih (Spirit Woman), and Tamara M. Williams (Spirit Woman).

EVE'S SONG is a stunning new drama about the haunting of a black family in America. In the aftermath of a messy divorce and a daughter coming out as queer, Deborah is trying to keep things normal at home. But as black people continue to be killed beyond their four walls, the outside finds its way in, blurring the lines between family dynamics, politics, and the spirit world. How long can family dinners keep the dangers outside at bay? Filled with dark humor and boiling suspense, EVE'S SONG examines our present racial climate through the eyes of a regular American family.

EVE'S SONG features scenic design by Riccardo Hernandez; costume design by Emilio Sosa; lighting design by Lap Chi Chu; sound design by Elisheba Ittoop; projection design by Hana S. Kim; hair, wigs & makeup design by J. Jared Janas; and movement direction by Stefanie Batten Bland.
