Sheila's Day

Synopsis:
Set in Perry County, Alabama, and Soweto Township, Johannesburg, South Africa during the turbulent 1960s, Sheila's Day is an exhilarating musical celebration of the human spirit. This musical drama is a timeless history of racial oppression in both countries that follows two women and their extraordinary stories as it parallels the civil rights struggles in the United States and apartheid in South Africa. A cast of women from both countries represents the on-stage domestic workers of the world known collectively as 'Sheilas'. Their high energy movement and dance accompanied by rousing blues and gospel along with stirring Zulu chants becomes an integral part of this exhilarating production that raises the spirit and provides for a collective sense of triumph.
