Martin Luther King, Jr: The Man Behind the Myth

The MountaintopThe Plain Dealer calls The Mountaintop “a superb production.” Broadwayworld.com says it is “…filled with vivid imagery and humor.” Full of vivid theatricality, poetic language, and surprising twists, The Mountaintop delivers a portrait of the man, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., behind the myth that is as provocative as it is beautiful. Written by Katori Hall and Set in the Lorraine Hotel in 1968, Martin Luther King, Jr., played brilliantly by Ro Boddie, encounters an extraordinary maid (the lovely Angel Moore) challenges this American icon. You do not want to miss this performance. Tickets start at $20.

Through February 14, 2016.
The Cleveland Playhouse, Outcalt Theatre, 1407 Euclid Avenue Cleveland, OH 44115.
