Atlas Performing Arts Center

1333 H Street NE Washington
Examines broader events surrounding Till's murder on a more intimate scale. We meet Caroline Bryant, her husband Roy, and his twin brother Ray on the days before and after Emmett's abduction, leaping forward to the summer of 2006 and the recantation of much of Caroline Bryant's testimony. Act II is set in the neighboring town of Glendora and follows the relationship of a local black couple, Clinton and Beulah Melton, with a concluding epilogue bringing the trilogy to its moving resolution.
