In 1925 Zora Neale Hurston moved to Harlem and became the first black woman to study at Barnard College and attend Columbia University. Zora gained fame as a writer, pioneer of the Harlem Renaissance literary movement, and secured a Guggenheim Fellowship Award to study in Haiti, Jamaica and the Gulf Coast. Ultimately Zora became one of the world’s greatest literary figures.

NAACP winner and New Orleans-actress’ Antoniá Badón, brings Zora to life in this unique one-woman production which transcends time and place with fifteen character portrayals, music and song.
