'At my age, I can say what I want,' Bessie Delany says in HAVING OUR SAY: THE DELANEY SISTERS' FIRST 100 YEARS. And truly, who's to argue with a woman who's lived more than a century? North Carolina Theatre's latest show tells the story of sisters, Sadie and Bessie Delany, two African-American women who were trailblazers in their careers and communities. Directed by Tia James, the play invites the audience into the sisters' home as they recount stories from their lives and explores themes of family, faith, and what it means to be a black woman in America.
North Carolina Theatre, the region's premiere nonprofit professional theatre, announced casting for its November production of Having Our Say: The Delany Sisters' First 100 Years, playing November 8-17 at Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Raleigh. Raised in Raleigh, trailblazing African-American activists, sisters and best friends Sadie and Bessie Delany - both over 100 years old - take audiences on an inspiring and entertaining journey as they recount the stories of their lives, from growing up on what is now the campus of Saint Augustine's University in Raleigh as the daughters of a former slave, to integrating a New York suburb during the Harlem Renaissance, and beyond.
North Carolina Theatre, the region's premiere nonprofit professional theatre, is proud to announce ABB as its 2019-20 season sponsor. ABB is a global technology leader driving the digital transformation of industries. ABB, whose North American headquarters are in Cary, has supported North Carolina Theatre for nearly 10 years and is strengthening its ties with the organization this season.
North Carolina Theatre is proud to announce its 2019-20 season sponsored by ABB on stage at the Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Raleigh. Opening in October, this season includes classic tales, inspiring stories, and fresh NC Theatre debuts.
