Description
Written by Alice Childress, this play revolves around Wiletta Mayer, an African-American actress of a certain age who has spent her career playing stereotypes, trapped on a merry-go-round of mammies, maids and other menials. The curtain rises on the first day of rehearsal for “Chaos in Belleville,” a Broadway-bound play that tackles the harsh truths of racism in America. But when those truths spill out of the play and into the rehearsal hall, will Wiletta’s insistence on her dignity cost her the work she desperately needs?
Call 214-768-ARTS for tickets.
