TAMBOURINES TO GLORY
TAMBOURINES TO GLORY!
Black Repertory Group
Berkeley, CA
The story of two women, the religious Essie Belle Johnson and her conniving friend Laura Reed, who open a storerfront church in Harlem. Essie sincerely wants to use her beautiful singing voice to bring people to God, and hopes to make enough money through the church to bring her daughter up from the South to live with her. But Laura wants only the money, which she uses for gambling, drinking, and attracting young men. The play is rich with the spoken and sung voices with some of BRG veterans, and derives its humor from the lively and generally appealing scoundrels who twist religion and morals for their own earthly gain.
