A moving and celebratory musical play in which hats become a springboard for an exploration of black history and identity as seen through the eyes of a young black woman who has come down South to stay with her grandmother after her brother is killed in Brooklyn. Hats are everywhere, in exquisite variety, and the characters use the hats to tell tales concerning everything from the etiquette of hats to their historical and contemporary social functioning. There is a hat for every occasion, from flirting to churchgoing to funerals to baptisms, and the tradition of hats is traced back to African rituals and forward to contemporary times.
Set in Darlington, South Carolina, Crowns creates a tapestry of voices that transcends time and place.
Production Dates: January 16-24, 2015
All auditions will be held at the Florence Little Theatre, 417 South Dargan Street, Florence. Prior experience is not required and all audition materials will be provided. Anyone auditioning, please bring a photo!
