Play Synopsis

​

Written by Jason Holtham and Inspired by Blues for an Alabama Sky by Pearl Cleage, Shadow of An Angel explores the problem of gentrification in Harlem.

Maya visits her big brother Miles and takes the opportunity to use as her other as a model to paint in her aspiration to recapture the soul of the Harlem Renaissance Cotton Club Vibe for her arts fellow submission. But Miles and his love are done with the new Harlem defaced or rather white-faced by gentrification and are on the verge of moving to LA.
