The Life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
An empowering tribute to a man that changed a nation!
All are welcomed! This production is best appreciated for grades 4 and higher!
One of the most celebrated leaders of the last century, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is brought to life in this powerful and accessible production.

In dedicating his life to justice and equal rights, Dr. King became the youngest person to ever win the Nobel Prize for Peace, was named the Time Magazine Man of the Year for 1963 and brought about dramatic shifts in the American way of life through peaceful ways--without being a bully or fighting back!
