Written by Shauntay Grant
Directed by Anthony Black
In association with Obsidian Theatre
World Premiere co-produced by Neptune Theatre
Set in a rural Black community, The Bridge examines the relationship between two brothers, strained over 20 years of secrecy, sin, and shame. Secrets abound and are revealed at every turn from the characters themselves, as well as from a trio of community gossips who provide the musical backdrop for this gospel-infused tale. Comedic and serious, light and introspective, The Bridge is an exploration of faith, family, and forgiveness.
