Trouble in Mind at MOXIE Theatre

Alice Childress; dir: Delicia Turner Sonnenberg.

Tony Awards and Nominations for Trouble in Mind

Following an experienced Black stage actress through rehearsals of a major Broadway production, Alice Childress's wry and moving look at racism, identity, and ego in the world of New York theatre opened to acclaim off-Broadway in 1955. At the forefront of both the Civil Rights and feminist movements, the prescient Trouble in Mind was announced to move to Broadway in 1957...in a production that never came to be.
