Changing Same: The Cold-Blooded Murder of Booker T. Spicely

February 28

Local theater auteur Mike Wiley’s latest solo work is based on the true 1944 Durham event. The play examines the racial tensions still found in Durham, the region, and the nation today. In addition, the play reminds contemporary audiences of the vibrant Hayti neighborhood and thriving Black businesses and community that have sustained Durham. Mike Wiley and Howard L. Craft co-wrote the script. Contributing to the atmosphere is local musician Corbie Hill, providing original live music to accompany the show.
