Margaret Mahdi, founder and director of Mahdi Theatre Company, is set to present her magnificent production of “Bronzeville: The Musical” at the famed Apollo Theater in New York City on November 16 and 17.
“Bronzeville: The Musical” is a “poignant and captivating journey that follows a father guiding his wayward teenage son on an enlightening path through their ancestral roots.
This soulful musical resonates with themes of redemption, faith, legacy, and the courage of a community, emphasizing the crucial role of history in preserving identity and heritage,” states a media release by Mahdi Theatre Company.
The saga also explores “the Great Migration from the South to Chicago, showcasing the resilience and brilliance of Black history and culture.”
“The message is ‘connect with your history and if you don’t know it, it’s your responsibility to dig deep and find it,’” Ms. Mahdi told The Final Call in a previous interview.
