About Black Nativity: A Gospel Christmas Musical Experience

"Black Nativity" is an African-American telling of the Nativity story, based on the Song Play written by acclaimed African-American poet and playwright Langston Hughes. The first act of the show re-creates the journey of Mary and Joseph, resplendent in African costumes, to Bethlehem, accompanied by a rousing repertoire of old-fashioned spirituals. The second act takes place nearly 2000 years later at a modern day African-American church on Christmas day, filled with testifying deacons, sanctified ladies, and down-home preaching. The African-American viewpoint and the gospel music make "Black Nativity" a truly unique and entertaining theatrical experience. For Parking: Go to 355 Ferst Drive, Atlanta, GA 30318 and look for “Parking Deck # 3”.
