Cryin' Shame

Written by JaVon Johnson

Directed by Stella Reed

Presented by
Kenny Dozier's
Nairobi Café
and
Candy Robins'
Robins' Nest

Anderson County, South Carolina, 1985. An illegal establishment disguised as a corner store provides the backdrop for the resurrection of hidden ghosts born out of strong generational bonds and of unconditional love. However, the traditions and expectations run deep and put love to the ultimate test. The disappointments, hurt, resentment, and shame combine to ignite this compelling tapestry of unspoken yet unyielding love. The play does not follow the protagonist structure. Ideally, the theme of the play exists within two relationships that are paralleled in issues and conflicts throughout.
