Description
A story about faith, determination and the resilience of the human spirit, Gee's Bend focuses on a single family in the community of Gee's Bend, a small town on the shores of a large bend in the Alabama River. The community became famous for the intricate handmade quilts created by the women who grew up there. With gospel songs woven throughout, the play-presented by the San Jose Multicultural Artists Guild-explores the turbulent history and perseverance of an African-American community in the rural South. The play runs through Sunday, Feb. 19. (BS)
