A new Off-Broadway revival of Lonne Elder III's Ceremonies in Dark Old Men is underway and headed for an April 28 (postponed from the originally announced April 18) opening night Off-Broadway at Theatre at St. Clements, and newly released production shots are offering a first look at the production. Take a look in the gallery below. Performances continue through May 18, with Clinton Turner Davis at the helm.
Norm Lewis leads the cast, sharing the stage with Felicia Boswell, James Foster Jr., Morgan Siobhan Green, Jeremiah Packer, Calvin M. Thompson, and Bryce Michael Wood. Casting is by Robin Carus.
Elder's play is set in 1950s New York, centering on a widowed father, a barber who used to be a vaudeville performer whose life is thrown into turmoil when his daughter's long-standing resentments come to a head as his two sons' criminal enterprise unravels.
The work, a Pulitzer Prize nominee, premiered Off-Broadway in 1969 via Negro Ensemble Company, which is co-presenting this revival with Peccadillo Theater Company and Eric Falkenstein.
The production features scenic design by Harry Feiner, costume design by Isabel Rubio, and lighting design by Jimmy Lawlor. The producing team also includes Willette and Manny Klausner, David S. Stone, Linda Powell, Jamie deRoy, Annaleise Loxton, and Jamila Ponton Bragg.
