The production will run from December 6 to December 15 at the Black Theatre Troupe, located at the Helen K. Mason Performing Arts Center.

Featuring an outstanding cast of local gospel talent, this production breathes new life into a classic story, delivering a performance that is both spiritually uplifting and deeply moving.
