This special event of staged play readings will honor Norman's legacy in the theatre. The Moses Gunn Play Company (renamed Moses Gunn/Norman Marshall Play Company) is a professional ensemble of actors with credits including Broadway, Off-Off Broadway, television, film, London's West End, and regional theatre. Norman played a key role in the burgeoning Off-Off Broadway theatre scene in the 1960's and 1970's. MGNMPC will perform scenes from "John Brown: Trumpet of Freedom" co-written and performed by Norman across the U.S. and overseas. In this solo play, Norman played al 31 characters for which he won rave reviews. We will perform as a staged reading some of those scenes. And a staged reading of Thornton Wilder's one-act play, "Happy Journey to Trenton and Camden".
Come celebrate theatre and Norman's incredible contributions as an artist and human with us. There will be a talk-back after and refreshments will be served.
