I am interested in seeing MA RAINEY'S BLACK BOTTOM (which somehow sounds salacious).
I was in a production of the play in Indianapolis in the late 1980's. We were scheduled for six weeks - we ended up playing twelve weeks. We were then brought back for another four weeks.
Then we went to some Play Festival in Norman, Oklahoma, after winning the Indiana Festival. We won the national title and traveled to Ireland for the International contest.....where we did okay.....
For the first half of the run, I played Ma's manager - then I switched to the studio owner for the rest of the run.
