Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. campus play ‘Miss Lydia’s Church’
Penn State Harrisburg and PenOwl Productions Theatre Company will present their annual MLK campus play series, ‘Miss Lydia’s Church.’
In January 1924, in the middle of a snowstorm, in the middle of the night, when four people, two sets of strangers, came together. All were wishing for better relations. What brought these strangers together? Was it a moon phase or a planetary shift or was it something deeper and farther away? “Miss Lydia’s Church” centers on the need to talk about the hard issues of racial relations in America, to face the fears that keep us silent, and to prepare a world for the next generations where all children are accepted and cherished. That was, after all, the dream Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King challenged us to envision and create. This annual production supports Penn State's commitment to fostering diversity and inclusion and celebrates the Martin Luther King Jr. national holiday.
The production is sponsored by Penn State Harrisburg’s School of Humanities, American studies program, and PenOwl Productions Theatre Company. The event is free and open to the public. Reservations should be made at bit.ly/41SPBuz
