    John Ball's In the Heat of the Night (Part 4) Feb 27, 2024
    Show notes

    This play is sponsored by the California Civil Liberties Public Education Program, a state-funded grant project of the California State Library.

    Based on John Ball’s novel which inspired the Oscar-winning film and the Emmy-winning television series, "In the Heat of the Night" pits a visiting black detective from California against a small Alabama town simmering with anger over desegregation. A fitting reflection of America in the 1960s, this Off-Broadway hit is provocative, timely, and uncomfortably relevant. Adapted by Matt Pelfrey.

    Original music composed by Mark Holden and Michael Lopez. Includes audience Q&A sessions with director Brian Kite and playwright Matt Pelfrey, as well as political journalist Todd Purdum. Recorded in Los Angeles before a live audience at The James Bridges Theater, UCLA in October of 2014.

    Directed by Brian Kite

    Producing Director: Susan Albert Loewenberg

    Ryan Vincent Anderson as Virgil Tibbs

    Michael Hammond as Sam Wood

    Kalen Harriman as Melanie Purdy/Noreen Tatum

    Travis Johns as Pete/Man In Shadows/Klansman 1

    James Morrison as Chief Gillespie

    Darren Richardson as Charles Tatum/Endicott/Al Jennings

    A Lesson Before Dying (Part 4) Feb 25, 2024
    Show notes

    A Lesson Before Dying is sponsored by the California Civil Liberties Public Education Program, a state-funded grant project of the California State Library.

    Based on Ernest J. Gaines’ National Book Critics Circle Award-winning novel, Romulus Linney’s adaptation of A Lesson Before Dying is set in a small Louisiana Cajun community in the late 1940s. Jefferson, a young illiterate black man, is falsely convicted of murder and is sentenced to death. Grant Wiggins, the plantation schoolteacher, agrees to talk with the condemned man. The disheartened Wiggins had once harbored dreams of escaping from his impoverished youth, yet he returned to his home town after university, to teach children whose lives seemed as unpromising as Jefferson’s.

    Recorded before a live audience at Voice of America, Washington D.C. in July of 2001.

    Directed by Nick Olcott

    Producing Director: Susan Albert Loewenberg

    Rick Foucheux as Paul Bonin

    Jamahl Marsh as Jefferson

    Linda Powell as Vivian Baptiste
