Dobama Theatre Presents Brownsville Song

The show directed by Jimmy Woody about the past and present of Tray and Devine in a Brooklyn neighborhood will being on Aug. 30.

From Dobama Theatre: Dobama Theatre opens its 17/18 Season with the Cleveland Premiere of brownsville song (b-side for tray), running September 1 - 24, directed by Jimmie Woody.

In the Brownsville neighborhood of Brooklyn, a life with infinite potential is tragically cut short. That is where the story both begins and ends. As time shifts gracefully between past and present we meet Tray, his 9-year-old sister Devine, the grandmother who’s raising them, and get introduced to the rest of Tray’s world – a world he’ll leave far too soon.
