Kimberly Wilson. “A Journey” Musical one-woman show

Love-Art-Play.com is a New Milford, CT based non-profit 503-C arts organization which will be presenting Kimberly Wilson in her original one-woman show, “A Journey.” This touring production has been performed nationally since 2012. In 2016 she was awarded the Best Playwright Award at the Atlanta Black Theatre Festival for her one-woman show.

“A Journey" brings to life seven historical Black women, from seven pivotal generations, who present to you their stories through song, movement and dialogue and how ultimately their faith, hope and calling helped shape the American we know today. Joyful celebrations and painful reflections are rendered artistically to tell a story of persistence, courage and how Black Women’s history, not alway woven into the tapestry of American history, is an integral part of the thread that holds together the fabric of American life.

Included in this journey are reflections from an African Queen, Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, Rosa Parks and more.

After each performance Ms. Wilson invites the audience to remain for a talk-back which extends the wealth of this theatrical experience. Audience members have the opportunity to share their feedback and stories as well.

AS we celebrate these historical Black women’s stories and their journeys as a tribute to honor Black History month. let us also celebrate our journeys. We must live, love and treasure each other, for this is also our journey as well.
