The great music of Johnny Taylor, the incredible sounds of the Staple Singers, and the style changing music of Otis Redding, Sam & Dave, Rufus Thomas, Booker T. & the MG's and other soul artists of the Stax era are depicted here in this David Barr original, written specifically for the Black Ensemble Theater and directed by Jackie Taylor.

This performance is awesome and I would recommend it to anyone to see. I like that the performers also have the audience to participate with them in a scene. This play will surely have you clapping, and snapping your fingers to some long forgotten hit tunes.
