Drama by Katori Hall A gripping re-imagination of events the night before the assassination of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. On April 3, 1968, 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. One of the most produced plays of the last 15 years, we’re finally bringing it to Greenville. Written by Tony-nominated playwright Katori Hall, this is a moving and surprising take on MLK. What starts out as a realistic drama slowly becomes something bigger, and it is in these moments that the play truly transcends what you may or may not think of MLK. It’s a play that illustrates sometimes it’s helpful to humanize our heroes.
