TheatreWorks Presents THE MOUNTAINTOP, Beginning 3/6

By:

TheatreWorks, the nationally acclaimed theatre of Silicon Valley, presents THE MOUNTAINTOP, winner of the 2010 Olivier Award for Best New Play. Called "emotionally powerful and theatrically stunning" by Variety, this London/Broadway hit re-imagines the events on the night before the assassination of civil rights leader DR. Martin Luther King, Jr. After delivering one of his most memorable speeches, an exhausted Dr. King retires to his room at the Lorraine Motel while a storm rages outside. When a mysterious stranger arrives with some surprising news, King is forced to confront his destiny and his legacy to his people.
