In 1927, FIRE!!, a quarterly magazine “Devoted to Younger Negro Artists” was published in Harlem and changed the future of American literature. Including illustrations, poems, essays, short stories, and plays, FIRE!! was the first all-Black magazine, by a young group of writers and artists, including Wallace Thurman, Zora Neale Hurston, Aaron Douglas, John P. Davis, Richard Bruce Nugent, Gwendolyn Bennett, Lewis Grandison Alexander, Countee Cullen, and Langston Hughes. This theatrical happening will weave together the lives of legendary giants as they speak their incendiary stories, make explosive music, dance, debate, collaborate, and celebrate their work from FIRE!!
Group, senior, military, industry, and rush discounts are available based on performance and availability.
