Sneak Peek: PARCHMAN HOUR rehearsals
Here's a sneak peek into the first week of rehearsal for THE PARCHMAN HOUR: SONGS AND STORIES OF THE '61 FREEDOM RIDERS, running October 25-November 12 at the Wells Theatre.
In this co-production with NSU Theatre Company, you'll take an awe-inspiring, musical journey through the Deep South with the pioneers who fought discrimination and paved the way for the future. Adapted from real-life accounts of the 1961 Freedom Rides, this play shares these struggles through music that ranges from Bob Dylan to spirituals.
