HAVING OUR SAY Opens in Salt Lake City, 1/26

The Grand Theatre is proud to present HAVING OUR SAY: THE DELANEY SISTERS' FIRST 100 YEARS by Emily Mann, adapted from the book by Sarah L. Delany and A. Elizabeth Delany with Amy Hill Hearth.

In Celebration of Black History Month, HAVING OUR SAY is the oral history of the centenarian sisters Sadie and Bessie Delany. It is about ordinary people who realize extraordinary achievements for more than one hundred years; from slavery to civil rights; witnessed , endured and revealed by two extraordinary women. Their story typifies the essential human condition of struggle and achievement, universal in its appeal and in the messages it communicates.
