SHREVEPORT, La. (Ark-La-Tex Today) - What would a meeting be like between Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.? Jeff Stetson’s The Meeting takes a look at that exact situation in 1965. The stage performance occurs on September 28, 29, and 30, 2023 at the LSU (Shreveport) University Center Theatre. All shows begin at 7:30 p.m.
From the press release, “Fascinating and dramatically compelling, this eloquent play depicts an imagined secret meeting between two of the most important men of modern times: Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in Harlem 1965, during the height of the Civil Rights Movement. Differing in their philosophies, but alike in their mutual respect, the two men debate their varying approaches to the same grave social problems, both prepared to die for their beliefs.”
Directors Dr. Angelique Feaster Evans and Robert Alford, II have assembled a dynamic cast starring Vincent J. Turner as Malcolm X, Adarian Williams as Dr. Martin Luther, King, Jr., and Robert Blue as Rashad.
