PART OF THE INAUGURAL RAVE THEATRE FESTIVAL

SWEET LORRAINE

Sweet Lorraine will play it's World Premiere at the 2019 Rave Festival. 

About the Play:

“Decide who you are and force the world to deal with you, not it’s idea of you.” -James Baldwin

Sweet Lorraine is a dramatic interpretation of the final conversation had between best friends, Lorraine Hansberry and James Baldwin in Lorraine’s New York City Hospital Room in January 1965. The play is set one week prior to Lorraine’s passing from pancreatic cancer and explores the complex, dynamic and often heated relationship between these two prolific, creative giants and American Artists and Activists.
