Bethel Arts and Greenwood Features present "A Journey" on February 4 from 4 to 5pm at Greenwood Features Bethel (doors open at 3:30)
"A Journey" is a moving one-woman performance of song and dance in celebration of Black History Month.
Kimberly Wilson,” Is a tour-de-force of acting and song, as she assumes multiple personae, beginning with a proud West African tribal queen violently kidnapped into slavery, to a cotton-picking slave, women icons of the civil rights movement and a present-day woman striving to make their inner light shine. Wilson wrote the script, an evolution of an original program called “The Three Spirits of Black Womanhood”.
She has performed "A Journey" in Connecticut for the past 17 years. “The piece allows me the luxury of breathing improvisation into it,” she said in an interview prior to an opening. “I do welcome the spirit of the history to join me.” Kimberly lives in Westport and has a daughter studying economics at the University of Connecticut.
