From The Black Repertory of St. Louis website (http://www.theblackrep.org): “The Black Rep offers Education and Community Programs to assist educators and community groups in efforts to provide academic experiences for young people and adults. A major component in these efforts are the performances of The Black Rep Touring Company. Each year, The Black Rep Touring Company performs more than 150 shows for schools, community centers, corporations, churches and other organizations in St. Louis and throughout the Midwest region. Touring shows compliment academic curriculum by illustrating history, teaching literature, and reinforcing morals.” Included this year is author Patricia McKissack’s Porch Lies!
