Crowns: The Gospel Musical
Crowns, a play with music and dance, weaves together a variety of stories from different characters, time periods and perspectives that, when with music and dance, create a tapestry of voices that transcend time and place. The essential story of Crowns is that of Yolanda, a young African American girl trying to figure out her identity, her place in the world, and her place in her own culture.
