DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Event Name: Purlie=0D=0AEvent Url: http://www.artsmemphis.org/event/detail/25213=0D=0AEvent Date Begin: 2008-05-02=0D=0AEvent Date End: 2008-06-01=0D=0A=0D=0ACreator Ossie Davis claims the goal of Purlie is 'intended to point a mocking finger at racial segregation and laugh it out of existence.' This celebratory musical tells of the preacher Purlie Victorious Johnson, who has returned to the Southland to trick a local plantation owner into giving him the land he needs to build his church. Rousing, exuberant, and sassy tunes help speak to a desire to better oneself and surmount the obstacles presented by society that is intense, immediate, and contemporary. Filled with amazing songs, joyous laughter, and self-discovery.=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:Thursdays - Saturdays at 8pm=0D=0A=Sundays, 2pm
