Project1VOICE
Seattle's Hansberry Project and Brownbox Theatre in association with the Langston Hughes Performing Institute joins PROJECT1VOICE and 25 other African American theatre companies across the U.S. and Port Elizabeth, South Africa, to present simultaneous benefit staged readings of Charles Fuller's "A Soldier's Play" as this year's 1 Voice, 1 Play, 1 Day benefit.

This free event will be held on Juneteenth, Monday, June 17th at the 8:00pm at the Langston Hughes Performing Institute.

The cast for the Seattle staged reading includes Drew Hobson, Ryan Fields, Marcel Davis, Rick Dupree, Brandon Simmons, Anthony Fuller, Christian Telemar, Reggie Jackson, and Earl Alexander. The staged reading will be directed by Valerie Curtis-Newton.

In A Soldier's Play, a black sergeant cries out in the night, "They still hate you," then is shot twice and falls dead. Set in 1944 at Fort Neal, a segregated army camp in Louisiana, Charles Fuller's forceful dramawhich won the Pulitzer Prize in 1982tracks the investigation of this murder. A Soldier's Play is more than a detective story: it is a tough, incisive exploration of racial tensions and ambiguities among blacks and between blacks and whites that gives no easy answers and assigns no simple blame.

1Voice, 1Play, 1Day, a program of Project1Voice (www.project1voice.org), is a national day of celebration that not only honors a great playwright's seminal work, but also highlights AfricanAmerican theatre companies across the country to help preserve the legacy of AfricanAmerican theatres and playwrights.
