She Calls Up the Sun - Backstage

Playwright Addae Moon crafts some of the most lyrical dialogue in the American theater. His characters are steeped in the traditions of the Southland, and his subtle cultural commentary on the rhythms of Black life are sublime.

She Calls Up The Sun has been a staple on the MPAACT mainstage and touring schedule for more than a decade. Join us as we discuss the play, the author and the processes that help make this play such a rich exploration of tradition, loss and recovery.
