A Lesson Before Dying Previews
January 25, 2008
, 2008
This powerful adaptation of Ernest Gaines 1993 National Book Critics Award winning novel centers on a young African-American man wrongly sentenced to death in a deeply prejudiced 1940’s. Through a reluctant school teacher, he is taught how to live and die with grace and dignity. A Lesson Before Dying is about the ways in which people insist on declaring the value of their lives and addresses the basic predicament of what it is to be a human being. Nominated for a Pulitzer Prize and an Oprah’s Book Club choice.
Officially opens on February 1. Purchase tickets online or by calling 817-338-4411.
