MILWAUKEE — Crumbs from the Table of Joy will be presented by ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Theatre starting Friday, Nov. 8, through Sunday, Nov. 17, at Evan P. and Marion Helfaer Theatre, 1304 W. Clybourn St.
This story by a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright addresses issues of grief, racism and the politics of immigration in a moving coming-of-age story. In 1950, a widowed father transplants his two young daughters out of the deep South to Brooklyn, New York, in his search for salvation. The girls are exposed to the escalating tension between a conservative father and a free-spirited aunt. In the end, young Ernestine finds the courage to seek out her dreams in this inspiring tale.
The show will run:
