A world-premiere musical by Nolan Williams, Jr., celebrating African-American food, family and tradition. Packed with an eclectic mix of styles including jazz, R&B, rousing up-tempos and raise-the-roof ballads, "Grace" is an electrifying musical feast celebrating the perseverance of family and the power of traditions.Created by celebrated D.C. composer Nolan Williams, Jr., "Grace" examines the little-told history of African-American culinary tradition and the challenges faced by Black-owned businesses. The musical captures a day in the life of the Mintons, a Philadelphia family who gather to mourn the loss of their matriarch and deal with the future of their family restaurant in a changing neighborhood. Heartfelt and hopeful, timely and timeless, "Grace" is the new American musical where, although family comes first, everyone has a seat at the table. With memorable titles such as Three Okra Seeds and Potlikker and When GranMe Cooked, every song holds a story to savor.
