This play by James Baldwin, his first for the theater, explores themes of faith, family, and racial dynamics within the African American community. It depicts Sister Margaret Alexander, a charismatic Harlem preacher, whose life is challenged when her estranged, dying jazz musician husband returns home, risking her religious authority and her relationship with her son. Baldwin’s powerful language and riveting storytelling delve into the complexities of personal and spiritual struggles.
