Henry Box Brown - A Musical Journey
Henry Box Brown, a musical journey of an 1850s Virginia slave who is shipped to freedom in a box with the help of African American and white abolitionists. A fusion of music traditions from Gospel, R&B, and blue grass wrapped in original Negro Spirituals, sung by top Broadway level singers (originally recorded by THREE TIME TONY WINNER, HINTON BATTLE).The triumph of the human spirit prevails through the sacrifice of black and white abolitionists. In partnership with New York University Department of Governance and Civic Engagement and a special grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Posner-Wallace Foundation.
In association with Bahai Unity Center &
