DESCRIPTION:June 15 - July 2, 2023; Previews June 15-16 at 8pm; Opening June 17 at 8pm; 
 Thurs-Sat 8pm; Sat-Sun at 3pm (starting June 24)\n\nWe're thrilled to 
 present the World Premiere of IN THE EVENING BY THE MOONLIGHT, a new play 
 uplifting the revolutionary playwright behind our company's name. Set in 
 her Waverly Place flat in New York, legendary writer Lorraine Hansberry 
 shares a rowdy, scotch-filled evening debating, confronting fears, and 
 celebrating the hope of revolution with the incomparable musician Nina 
 Simone and the prolific writer James Baldwin.\n\nBased on biographies, 
 interviews, documentaries, FBI records, and the Lorraine Hansberry and 
 James Baldwin archives housed at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black 
 Culture in Harlem, IN THE EVENING BY THE MOONLIGHT reimagines a magical 
 moment in the life of Hansberry at the height of the Civil Rights 
 Movement.\n\n"At a time when books, art, culture, and Black history are 
 being banned or altered, bringing forth this piece with co-creator Margo 
 Hall about Lorraine Hansberry and her two close friends Nina Simone and 
 James (Jimmy) Baldwin, feels intensely urgent," says writer/performer Traci 
 Tolmaire. "Not only as a theatrical piece but as a glimpse into their 
 humanity and friendship."\n\n$20-$50.\n
