In this Spoken Word event actor and director Wyllie Longmore confronts Ira Aldridge, the black American tragedian who achieved great renown in England and Europe in the mid-19th century, who was subsequently written out of history and, for decades, remained largely forgotten. The two men talk, argue, try to understand each other's lives, nearly two hundred years apart, and share their experiences as black actors in this country.
