Kennedy Center honoree Ossie Davis delivers a comedic triumph in PURLIE VICTORIOUS, the Tony Award-winning production recently headlined by Leslie Odom Jr. on Broadway. Taglined as “A non-Confederate romp through the cotton patch,” this uproarious narrative follows the charismatic traveling preacher, Purlie Victorious Judson, navigating the challenges of the Jim Crow era as he returns to his Georgia hometown on a mission to reclaim his inheritance from a tyrannical plantation owner. Teaming up with the lively Lutiebelle Gussie Mae Jenkins, Purlie hatches an outrageous plan to use his wealth for the emancipation of enslaved workers and the salvation of his church. This inspirational and joyous comedic gem, the genesis of the beloved musical PURLIE, embodies the collective aspiration of freedom and justice. The New York Times called it, "Marvelously exhilarating" and it is sure to leave a lasting grin on your face.
