THE AMEN CORNER

“What a wonder, what a marvel!”
By James Baldwin
Harlem storefront pastor Margaret Alexander champions piety with her congregation and teenage son. But the tables are turned by the return of her estranged husband, forcing a reconciliation between her humanity and her faith. One of iconic author James Baldwin’s only plays, this powerful, music-filled production features different guest choirs from throughout the community at every performance.
