Description
In 1964, four men who would become icons in their respective fields came together for one night that would change history. Cassius Clay, Malcolm X, Sam Cooke, and Jim Brown gathered in a hotel room to share laughter, ideas, and a moment of understanding. As the Civil Rights movement gained momentum outside, these friends found common ground within themselves. The air was thick with the melody of "A Change is Gonna Come," a song that would soon become an anthem for a generation. This powerful debut play by Kemp Powers explores the complexities of friendship, identity, and the power of human connection. First performed in Los Angeles in 2013, One Night in Miami has since received critical acclaim and was later adapted into a feature film.
