In this groundbreaking production which debuted at Yale Repertory Theatre in 2019, Lumen Repertory Theatre continues to push the boundaries of bold, professional theatre in Northeast Florida. Cadillac Crew follows the lives of four women on the day of a civil rights protest in 1960s Virginia, offering a vivid portrayal of the often-overlooked contributions of Black women to the movement. Through sharp dialogue and dynamic storytelling, Tori Sampson’s work illuminates the intersection of race, gender, and activism, resonating deeply with contemporary audiences.

This regional premiere promises to be an unforgettable theatrical experience, challenging perceptions, sparking critical conversations, and celebrating the bold voices that have shaped history.

During the final days of a national election, this live performance material drips with relevance and something important to say. And it says it in both creative and bold ways.
