Crossroads Theatre Company: Stages of Change
Anthony P. Carter June 10, 2020
Over four decades ago, two young black men were on a mission with a vision to create a sacred space where the voices of the African Diaspora would come to light and to life for all to learn from, enjoy and be motivated by. Over the many seasons of its existence, Crossroads Theatre Company has been telling the stories of a proud people using its stage to show the joy, pain, laughter, trials and tribulations of black people. As America and our world has evolved, Crossroads has amplified Stages of Change through its productions. Our commitment is to continue the work that encourages conversations around race, social justice and be a beacon in the community.
