The Blue Door May 10, 2007

Delroy Lindo, who came to prominence on Broadway and earned wider recognition with major film roles, directs a sensational new play filled with dynamic characters and vibrant original music. In Tanya Barfield's script, a sleepless mathematics professor in crisis is visited by his ancestors. Four generations -- from the antebellum era to the Black Panthers -- come vividly to life, liberate him from his studies and compel him to understand what it means to be black. Detailed writing, sharp acting and deft direction will guide you through 'The Blue Door.'
