Infused with music from the Civil Rights era, this original play celebrates Ernest Green of the Little Rock Nine; Claudette Colvin, who refused to give up her bus seat months before Rosa Parks also refused; and Ruby Bridges, who was the first student to desegregate an all-white New Orleans school. Their inspiring stories demonstrate that hope begins with the courage of young people.

Performance times are at 10:15am and 11:30am.
