I WISH YOU LOVE at Penumbra Theatre

Saturday, April 23, 2011

6 p.m. talk with playwright Dominic Taylor, 7:30 play
270 N. Kent Street, St. Paul  

In 1957, Americans were falling in love to the sweet sounds of Nat "King" Cole.  His carefully manicured image distracted an entire generation of white viewers from the reality of racial violence ranging in the streets.  Still, Cole believed that with enough talent and persistence he would be judged on the content of his character as opposed to the color of his skin.  Join us for an intimate portrait of one man, his music, and the dreams of a nation. (Text is from the Penumbra website.) 

Cost: $10/person (deeply discounted from the regular price of $38), and includes reception and talk beforehand.  A limited number of tickets are available.  To purchase your tickets contact the Penumbra Box Office at (651) 224-3180 and mention Carleton or go online to www.penumbratheatre.org and use our special code CARLALUM.
