Double Header!! See two solo shows for the price of one ticket. Both Mulatto's Dilemma and the Making of a Mulatto will be performed on April 19 and May 3, 2009. Local theater goers will want to catch "Mulatto's Dilemma" a one woman show written and performed by Award winning actress Juliette Fairley. Miss Fairley, whose father is African-American and mother, a blond, blue-eyed French woman, initially wrote this show in her acting class in New York City but her teacher Wynn Handman urged her to do it as a one-woman play. In this production, which is being reviewed for a 2009 NAACP theater award, she plays all the characters whom she says are outrageously stereotypical. Set in the 1920s, Mulatto's Dilemma is about a bi-racial woman living in the 1920s who struggles with Jim Crow and whether to marry a black man or white man. Juliette's second solo show, the Making of a Mulatto, will also be performed on this show date.
NOTE: No one under 8 years old will be admitted.
