Like it Was the Last Day at Ammun Ra Theatre PlayhouseBy Martin BradyPublished on March 18, 2009 at 3:48amAmun Ra Theatre artistic director Jeff Obafemi Carr first workshopped his original drama in 2001, and it now receives its formal premiere. In 1967 Alabama, a death in the family brings blues singer Nudon Rison home for the first time in over a decade. There's old business that awaits him, especially involving his brother Workman and a sister, Nita, who grew up without knowing him. Carr's cast features a host of familiar local actors, including Bobby Daniels, Kenneth Dozier, Darlene Knight, David Chattam, Joel Diggs and Alicia Ridley. The play contains some strong language, so parental discretion is advised.
