Adapted by Kim Hines from the book
Almost to Freedom by Vaunda Micheaux Nelson
"A doll is a witness who cannot die, with a doll you are never alone."
-Margaret Atwood
From the gifted playwright Kim Hines comes a vivid and dramatic tale based upon the popular book by Vaunda Micheaux Nelson.
A young girl is given a rag doll, through whose eyes we see the extremes of slave life—the cruelty, the love, and the daring escape from slavery via the Underground Railroad. A great play for Black History Month.
