JUBILEE THEATRE PRESENTS

A LESSON BEFORE DYING

By Romulus Linney
Directed by Ed Smith

How do you handle injustice, death, innocence and the past? 

 

Jubilee Theatre presents A LESSON BEFORE DYING,  a provocative, tear jerker based on the 1993
National Book Critics Award Winning Novel by Ernest J. Gaines, set on a plantation outside
Bayonne, centers
on a young African-American man wrongly sentenced to death in a deeply prejudiced 1940’s.  The major
conflict is will he die with grace and dignity despite the injustice?  A LESSON BEFORE DYING, is about
the ways in which people insist on declaring the value of their lives and addresses the basic predicament of what
it is to be a human being. Nominated for a Pulitzer Prize and an Oprah’s Book Club choice.
