An African-American women’s musical history from “God Bless the Child” to Destiny’s Child.
Produced by three-time Tony winner Hinton Battle and directed by Smash's Kenneth Ferrone, the production follows five women as they prepare to bury the matriarch of their family.
The women discuss their family history and the history of African-American women through popular music spanning from Billie Holiday to Beyonce and from Ma Rainey to Mary J. Blige. This soulful and laugh-out-loud show goes from pain to pride to power, from “Oh, Happy Day,” “Mr. Big Stuff,” and “I Will Survive” to “Tyrone,” “I am Not My Hair,” and “A Woman’s Worth.”
