Prime Stage Theatre will return to its roots with a livestream performance of “Sojourner,” with Delana Flowers portraying the 19th-century women’s suffrage and abolition activist in a Black History Month production.
The theater group’s inaugural production 25 years ago was another play about Sojourner Truth.
”Sojourner” is by Richard LaMonte Pierce, a playwright and published author whose work expounds on the Black and American experience, according to Prime Stage. Pierce is a founding member and playwright in residence at First World Theatre in Philadelphia.
