of August Wilson's King Hedley II; directed by Caroline Jackson Smith 

May 25 - June 17, 2007 -  Jelliffe Theatre

King Hedley II, set in a backyard in the decaying urban Hill District of
Pittsburgh finds a scarred King Hedley II, who served seven years in jail
for murdering his attacker trying to obtain a better life for his wife Tonya
and his unborn child. King  Hedley is trying to rebuild his life by peddling
stolen refrigerators in the feeble hope of making enough money to open a
video store and declares he will let nothing get in the way of his dream.
Tony Brown, Plain Dealer critic says of  King Hedley II performed by E. B.
Smith "Taut, beefy and boiling, he's the angry young man with a dream who
would rule the world if he could only (or even wanted to) blow out the fuse
on the bomb of his own making destined to blow it all away."  Fran Heller,
Cleveland Jewish News reviewer writes "Karamu season ends on high note with
King Hedley II".

This talented, experienced cast, plus an award winning Playwright, award
winning Director and an award winning Choreographer makes Karamu's Ohio
Premier of King Hedley II a "must see" production. Call Karamu's box office
