The cast for A CELEBRATION OF BLACK HISTORY

will honor the diversity of talent that comes through the African American tradition.

Performers will present narrations, dance, music, and historical information, and

the show will trace the timeline of African roots to current African American culture.

The Lindy Hop? The golden era of the Harlem Renaissance? The origins of today's Hip Hop?

There has been so much cultural growth that it was difficult to choose what to put in the show.

This is an excited group who will bring their best to the Possum stage

in a sparkling production you won't want to miss!

Join us and celebrate Black History Month and the richness and contributions

of African American culture to our great nation!
