About This Show

“Using Theater as a vehicle for Social change, Kenyatta is powerful & poignant, entertaining & educational, heartfelt & humorous, the show celebrates our common humanity.” Cape Cod Times.

Celebrate Black History Month as Santa Monica Playhouse and Stogie Kenyatta present two performances only of the acclaimed solo show about African-American artist/activist Paul Robeson honoring the Brotherhood of Man for Martin Luther King.

Robeson was witness to the artistic wonders of the Harlem Renaissance and the Jazz-Be bop era. His life’s work celebrates our common humanity as he fought globally for social justice. “Armed with nothing more than the strength of his convictions and his vision of a world where men live as brothers. His message was his life,” says Kenyatta. “He shows us that in spite of our differences, we still have more in common than we do in conflict.” “Highly Recommended! Noteworthy!” Santa Monica Daily Press
