The Weekend Theater Presents
Crumbs from the Table of Joy
By Lynn Nottage
September 10, 11, 17, 18, 24, 25
In 1950, Godfrey Crump, widowed father of two teenage girls, moves his family from
Pensacola, Florida to Brooklyn, NY after the passing of his wife, Sandra. Swallowed by
depression and surrounded by hate, Godfrey seeks solace in Father Divine, religious figure
of the Peace Mission Movement. Unexpectedly, his sister-in-law, Lily, moves in. Her
proactive lifestyle, from partying to anti-racism protests, leads to many clashes between
Lily and Godfrey, especially after he comes home with a very new, and very white German
immigrant wife, Gerte. This play explores the unraveling fabric of a family that does its
best to piece and patch their relationships. A collage of anger, oppression, and hope.
Directed by Crystal C. Mercer.
