Go, Tell Michelle_A Montage of Voices

Go, Tell Michelle_The Play was performed on January 19th at the University of Buffalo's Allen Hall Theater. An encore performance marking the first anniversary of President Obama's inauguration was given on the 20th the Frank E. Merriweather, Jr. Public Library. Both performances had standing room audiences. You can listen to this exciting performance. (CLICK ON THE WORD PERFORMANCE)

Coming Soon -- GTM, the PLAY!

Now you know why we have been quiet these last few weeks as we have been working with Dr. Robert Knopf, Chair of the University at Buffalo's Drama Department on a dramatic adaptation of Go, Tell Michelle for the stage!!!!! And we have just completed a read-through of the script and proposed changes for Dr. Knopf to incorporate in the finished piece. Thanks to contributors Karima Amin, Sharon Amos and Sharon Holley for their assistance. We are working with Dr. Knopf and SUNY Press to have an inaugural performance on the 19th of January just in time for the anniversary of President's Obama's Inauguration. We are working very hard to have this come off and will keep you informed of our progress from here on.
