NEXT ON STAGE

A Small and Humble Erasure

By Stephanie Gardner
Directed by Michelle Medina Villalon

Mar 20-30 at Armour Street Theatre

Davidson Community Players is proud to present the world premiere production of a true Charlotte original. Playwright Stephanie Gardner digs deep into Queen City history to explore a pivotal moment in which the powers-that-be drove marginalized theatre makers toward founding a venue atop an enslaved people’s burial ground. In a sweeping, generations-spanning, and playful style, Gardner’s artistic rendering begs us all to consider what is sacrificed in the ever-problematic quest for space.
