Theatrical Outfit (Atlanta - Downtown, Midtown)
Adapted by Romulus Linney and based on the novel by Ernest J. Gaines
When a young black man in 1940s rural Louisiana is falsely convicted of murder and sentenced to the electric chair, his godmother pleads
with the conflicted, plantation school teacher to help her "baby" face death with dignity. As the two men's prison-bound relationship deepens in intensity and intimacy, it shines an unflinching light on injustice, oppression and each person's choice of response. This powerful, heartbreaking adaptation taps the Southern roots of both Gaines and Linney to expose the universal human condition. Jill Jane Clements directs.
