Peculiar & Sudden Nearness to the Moon

A bright and beautiful Anglo professor about to give birth to her first child... a strange black spirit that speaks to her in an ancient voice... an exquisite moon that never seemed so large and luminous. When she gives birth to a baby who grows darker with each passing day, Sydney Spencer is catapulted on a journey to come to grips with the deepest mysteries of life: the questions of identity and belonging in the context of race, culture, and class; the search for the critical and complicated answer to “Who am I?” Don’t miss this World Premiere production by award-win­ning playwright Velina Hasu Houston. Sacramento Theatre Company, November 8 - December 31, 2006 For more information, visit them online at www.sactheatre.org or call (916) 443-6722.
