SUMMARY:East Texas Hot Links
DESCRIPTION:East Texas Hot Links | Written and Directed by Eugene Lee \nGreed\, corruption and Jim Crow intertwine in the tense thriller East Texas Hot Links. It’s 1955 in the piney woods of East Texas\, and Charlesetta’s Top O’ the Hill Cafe is one of the only public places where black locals can gather for comfort\, solace\, and companionship. In a community dominated by the Ku Klux Klan\, young black men have begun disappearing and turning up dead. On one hot summer night\, the patrons of the Top O’ the Hill must join forces to protect one of their own. When danger comes knocking\, the unthinkable happens\, with dire consequences for all involved.

SUMMARY:2019 - 2020 Season: She Griots
DESCRIPTION:Incoming Artistic Director Jamil Jude and True Colors Theatre Company are thrilled to announce the 2019 – 2020 season\, dubbed “She Griots.” The three productions of this 17th season focus on strong women playwrights\, storytellers\, historians and leaders of various generations. \nThe season opens in September\, when True Colors will conclude Dominique Morisseau’s The Detroit Project Trilogy with Paradise Blue. In past seasons\, True Colors has produced the two other plays in the trilogy\, Detroit ’67 and Skeleton Crew. Set in 1949\, Paradise Blue explores a jazz club in Detroit’s Black Bottom\, a neighborhood on the verge of urban renewal and radical change. \nFebruary 2020 brings Jocelyn Bioh’s comedic hit School Girls; Or\, the African Mean Girls Play to the stage. This production follows a group of young women at a Ghanaian boarding school vying to participate in the Miss Ghana Pageant and ultimately\, the Miss Global Universe Pageant. \nThe season closes with George Brant’s Marie and Rosetta\, a play with music that tells the story of Sister Rosetta Tharpe and her protégée Marie Knight\, as they develop the relationship that led them to become a dynamic singing duo. \nClick here for more information about subscriptions. \nClick here to purchase single tickets.
