Because of audience demand, Intiman Theatre has added a final performance of the gospel songfest “Black Nativity” at 2 p.m. Sunday at Intiman Theatre, 201 Mercer St., Seattle.
Tickets are $15 to $45 at 206-269-1900 or www.intiman.org.
Part theater and part gospel concert, “Black Nativity” captures the traditions of a church service and the legacy of poet Langston Hughes and his commitment to social activism. This season’s production includes references to the election of Barack Obama.
“Black Nativity” is directed by Jacqueline Moscou and choreographed by Kabby Mitchell III, with music direction by pastor Patrinell Wright. Wright also leads the company, which includes the Rev. Joseph E. Connor, G. To’mas Jones and Phyllis C. Yasutake as narrators; Bojohn Diciple as Joseph and Pamela Yasutake as Mary; members of the Total Experience Gospel Choir and Black Nativity Choir and an onstage band.
