JUST OLD MEN TALKING by Grady L. Mackey III Directed by Sharon L. Graine

A play about four elderly black men from Bluffhill, Alabama, engaging in conversation & expounding on the “talk of the time”, their younger years and the world today.  People of African descent, in particular, have a strong oral tradition, telling stories as a way to pass on information from one generation to the next.  And, as one audience member summed it up, “the nuanced exchange between characters, the knowing glances, the meaningful head tilts, this was how the stories were told and these actors deliver — masterfully!”
