The Movement: an a cappella Musical

A tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. at the Newark Public Library, 5 Washington Street, January 16

The Diversity Youth Theater will present two performances of The Movement: an a cappella Musical, in remembrance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The piece, by Kathy D. Harrison, was inspired by the Children’s Crusade, a 1963 protest in Birmingham, Alabama, in which children risked their lives to demonstrate against segregation. Shows at 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.  Groups welcome.  Please r.s.v.p. to 973-733-7793.
