The Mountaintop

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (Tony Award nominee Jon Michael Hill, Elementary, Superior Donuts) retires to the Lorraine Motel after delivering his history-altering “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” speech and encounters Camae (Amanda Warren, East New York, Dickinson, Gossip Girl), a mysterious maid with some surprising news. As a lightning storm rages outside, the legacy of America’s most revered civil rights leader is laid bare to reveal his profound humanity.

Hailed as “a thrilling, wild, provocative flight of magical realism… as audacious as it is inventive” by the Associated Press, Katori Hall’s Olivier Award–winning drama reimagines what Dr. King’s last night on Earth could have been.
