The Scottsboro Boys - January 20 - February 19, 2012
The Scottsboro Boys
January 20 - February 19
480 S. Broad Street
Fresh off a successful run on Broadway, The Philadelphia Theatre Company brings us the Tony Award nominated musical, The Scottsboro Boys. An electrifying and emotional tour de force, this semi-controversial musical chronicles the story of a group of African-American young men falsely accused of attacking a white women in 1930's Alabama.
A new musical, based upon the once-popular ministrel-show style, the show has an awe inspiring cast of triple threat performers, more than capable of entertaining and moving any audiences. So, don't miss this powerful retelling of a piece of American history, told through music and dance.
