Nikkole Salter and Danai Gurira's humane drama In the Continuum will open at 59E59 Theaters (59 East 59th Street) today, October 2nd. A Primary Stages production, the world premiere play began performances on September 11th and will play its limited engagement through October 30th.
"In The Continuum dramatizes the devastating problem of HIV/AIDS among African and African-American women that has reached an all time high both in the US and Africa," state press notes. Directed by Robert O'Hara (Insurrection: Holding History, American Ma(u)l), the play features Salter and Gurira playing various characters in its two strands--one involving a married Zimbabwean woman and the other about a South Central L.A. teenage girl. While Salter was born and raised in L.A., the American-born Gurira grew up in Zimbabwe, a moderately-sized country near the south of Africa." (Press info)
It is a brilliant show with heart. Everyone needs to rush out and see this. It is a must see for every woman and man.
Run, get your tickets.
