ABOUT THE PLAY
Karamu alum and literary genius Langston Hughes’ Black Nativity (based on the 
Gospel of St. Luke) was first produced Off-Broadway in 1961. Under Hughes’ pen, 
this piece is part re-enactment of the birth of Jesus, part church service, and 
part Christmas concert. Composed entirely of gospel versions of traditional 
carols and contemporary music infused with energetic and exciting dance 
sequences.
 
 
REHEARSALS
There will be 4-6 weeks of rehearsals. Rehearsals will be selected (based on 
availability of the cast) on evenings, and weekends,  3 - 6 times per week. 

 
COMPENSATION:Non-AEA actors will receive a stipend.
