WHAT: Everybody, by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins
What do you do when you are confronted with death? How do you account for your life and how you've lived? Do we laugh? Cry? Wail? Revel? This modern riff on the 15th century morality play Everyman follows EVERYBODY (chosen from amongst the cast by lottery at each performance) as they journey through life’s greatest mystery — the meaning of living.

May 15 - 18
WHO: The Africana Performance Ensemble, along with the Theatre and Dance programs at Nassau Community College, present From Okra to Greens, by Ntozake Shange. This play is presented through an arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc., www.concordtheatricals.com.
WHAT: Like Ntozake Shange’s world-renowned choreopoem for colored girls who have considered suicide / when the rainbow is enuf, From Okra to Greens serves a melodious bowl of soulfully cooked poetry, music and dance, blending in both
choreopoem and musical theatre seasoning. It is a reminder of the importance of teaching
the history of a people, honoring the indigenous people of the lands in which we plant
our feet, and allowing love – in its purest form – to flourish. At times funny, at
times poignant, but always exciting and entertaining, From Okra to Greens is a different kind of love story.
