A compelling play written by the talented and award-winning playwright Peter DeAnda, Adam is set on the Caribbean island of Bimini, in the Hall of the U.S. House of Representatives, and in Harlem’s famed Abyssinian Baptist Church. Timothy Simonson gives a solo tour de force performance as the charismatic Adam Clayton Powell Jr. on his political journey as Harlem’s first black Congressman, who represented his district from 1945 to 1971.
