2007-2008 Theatre Season

Awaiting Judgment ©

Written by Rev. Art Cribbs, directed by the late Dr. Floyd Gaffney and inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King's sermon at Riverside Church in New York on April 4, 1967, Awaiting Judgment is an earnest depiction of 20th Century theological giants, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Their exchange provides a prophetic and relevant message to the audience
