Crowns
from the book by Michael Cunningham & Craig Marberry
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 aunt after her brother is killed in Brooklyn. Hats are everywhere, in exquisite variety, and the characters use the hats to tell their tales. There is a hat for every occasion, from flirting to churchgoing to funerals to baptisms, and the conclusion finds the young woman embracing hats and their cultural significance as a part of her own fiercely independent identity.
