About the Show

History ignites in The Visit of Mother Moses—a riveting new drama about courage, defiance, and the radical women who risked everything. As Civil War Draft Riots explode across New York, Harriet Tubman (Gina Simone Pemberton, lauded for her role in Fences) takes shelter with a secret sisterhood of white abolitionists in Auburn. Outside, violent mobs hunt fugitives and torch the city. Inside, Tubman—spy, liberator, and Union operative—forges an explosive alliance with women defying their families, neighbors, and era to fight for freedom. Award-winning playwright Dimitri C. Michalakis unveils Tubman’s untold strategic genius and the daring of these rebels who smuggled weapons, hid escapees, and plotted resistance under siege. Rising star Pemberton delivers a tour-de-force performance, embodying Tubman’s ferocity, wit, and humanity in a heart-pounding story where survival collides with legacy.
