Meet the Playwright - Widows and Warriors
Betty Shabazz and Coretta Scott King: History has preserved them as the brave, stoic, relatively silent wives of two of the 1960's most iconic African-American male leaders. But who were they PERSONALLY - after the press corps left and the cameras were shut off?
Playwright Donna Coles' "Widows And Warriors" takes the audience inside of a projected conversation between Betty and Coretta: Two women who know everything - but nothing - about one another.
