We will be heading to the Arden Theater THIS TUESDAY (2/25) at 7 PM and leave from the Hill Atrium at 6:15 PM sharp.

 

Read below for more details about this phenomenal show based on the life of one of the most heroic figures in U.S. history, Harriet Tubman. If you are interested in attending, please RSVP to me ASAP. To secure your ticket, you will need to pay a $5 co-pay at the Hill Office (once you have received a confirmation email from me). Transportation to/from the show will be provided.

 

A world premiere by acclaimed Philadelphia playwright Lorene Cary, My General Tubman is a beautiful and exciting new play about the complex journey of Harriet Tubman and the impact she continues to have today. Harriet Tubman risked her life escaping slavery in the north, while also liberating hundreds of enslaved people from the south and leading a battalion of black soldiers during the Civil War. In a sweeping overlay of fantasy and reality, Cary takes us from the Civil War to abolitionist Massachusetts to Canada to the 2020 Philadelphia penal system.
