THE CLOCK
The Clock is a play about a family attempting to flee the Jim Crow South to find happiness and prosperity in the North. The Jones family seeks to hold on to some semblance of family tradition, while dealing with unemployment, discrimination, poor education and changing family dynamics. After settling in a Baltimore ghetto, the family encounters all types of social ills: alcoholism, drug addiction, crime and juvenile delinquency. Frank Jones, the patriarch of the family loses control and respect of his family. He distances himself further from the family by his loss of faith in God, and preoccupation with putting a Civil War era clock back together. The clock was given to him by his father and he believes that once he can fix the clock and return it to working order it will cure all that ails the family.
