MAHALIA (Musical)

August 21-September 7, 2008

Equal parts gospel musical, biography, and revival meeting, Mahalia creates a spirited look at Mahalia Jackson, "The Queen of Gospel Music," and is guaranteed to lift you out of your seats with such songs as "His Eye is on the Sparrow," "How I Got Over," and "Move On Up a Little Higher." In Hattiloo’s first season, this production brought down the house with praise and foot-stomping.
