The Customers Always Write:
April 13, 2012
Dear Lorraine Hansberry Theatre,My husband and I saw Blues for an Alabama Sky on Sunday, April 8, and were thrilled by the quality of your production of this complex and psychologically searching play. The acting was superb and we found ourselves fully caught up in the dilemmas of the characters ... We consider "Blues" to be a highlight of this theatrical season for us and we're recommending it to all our friends. We've made an online donation of $250 to express our gratitude for your mounting of this important play.
Thank you very much for your fine work. Please accept our hearty congratulations for Blues for an Alabama Sky.
