As The War and Treaty, Michael and Tanya Trotter serve up healing and pain robbing with freewheeling joy on their new fulllength album, Healing Tide. Funky bass lines, keys, lap steel, acoustic strings, and stripped-down percussion create a swampy Southern soul bed for the couple’s transcendent vocals. A tour-de-force produced by Buddy Miller, the collection swaggers with confidence only gained by artists who are wholly, proudly, themselves.

“King Solomon Lives”…A Nubian Love Story is a breathtaking and dazzling production full of zest, zing and zeal. This powerful drama tells the true legendary love story between the wise and wealthy King Solomon and the exotically beautiful Queen of Sheba. The storyline magically moves back through time, presenting a parallel between the story of a young mother and her son living in an inner-city project in Baltimore in 1996 and the ancient love story from the biblical period of 976 B.C. The audience will experience an incredible journey with musicians and dancers adorned in eloquently colored costumes, all while celebrating the message of family, love and trust. If you loved the movie Black Panther, and if you were mesmerized by The Lion King – don’t miss this play! It’s a show for the entire family to enjoy!
