THE AMEN CORNER
January 9 – 26, 2025
By James Baldwin
After giving a fiery Sunday morning sermon, Harlem pastor Margaret Alexander is confronted by the unexpected arrival of her long-estranged husband, Luke. Luke tells their son David and several elders of the congregation that he had not abandoned his family years ago; it was Margaret who left Luke to pursue a religious life. Margaret, Luke, David, and the congregation clash over the perceived hypocritical nature of Margaret's religious convictions and the breakup of her family.
The Amen Corner is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
