African American Theater Arts Troupe presents
Don't Get God Started
The African American Theater Arts Troupe will present Don't
Get God Started by Ron Milner at the UCSC Second Stage Theater
February 23-25 and in March at two other locations in the community.
The play is produced and directed by Don Williams, who founded the troupe.
Written in the mid-1980s, this former broadway production deals with
the complexity of relationships that stand in need of healing work and
progress. This play provides a dramatic backdrop of action and conflict,
yet is pregnant with resolution and hope. It is filled with an array of
inspirational, heartfelt, uplifting, spirit-strengthening, hand-clapping,
foot-stomping, infectious gospel music.
The production is sponsored by UCSC Student Affairs, the Council on
Ethnic Programming, Center for Cultural Arts and Diversity, Student
Initiated Outreach, UCSC Division of the Arts, Monterey Peninsula College,
and UCSC Theater Arts Department.
