Freedom Riders: Homecoming

  • Fantasy Playhouse Children's Theater and Academy 3312 Long Avenue Southwest Huntsville, AL, 35805 United States (map)

Join us for the world premiere of our brand-new touring production, Freedom Riders: Homecoming, original work by Carissa Conley & directed by Stephen Tyler Davis.

Freedom Riders: Homecoming is presented by Fantasy Playhouse Children’s Theater & Academy and in partnership with Alabama A&M University (AAMU).

Freedom Riders: Homecoming is originally performed by AAMU students & alumni.

SYNOPSIS: The Freeman Family is buzzing with joy as they prepare for the homecoming of their active duty military daughter. As the feast comes together, the youngest of the family questions which historical figure she will choose for her Black History Month Project. The quirky Freemans use song, dance, fashion, history, and everything in between to introduce the many figures who paved the way for civil rights. What does freedom really mean? Who fought for it and which character will she choose for her school project? Authentic food, music, and community come together in celebration of family, love, legacy, and the beauty of freedom in today’s America.
