Truth - The Testimonial of Sojourner Truth

Truth is
a powerful drama, suitable for ages 8 and up, exploring the life of Sojourner
Truth, a slave woman who, after her escape from slavery in the early 1800's
searches for her identity as an abolitionist and women’s suffrage activist.  Through music, movement and drumming, her
story comes to life.  Acclaimed local
