A Play for Martin Luther King Jr. Day

Hope you're having a great Martin Luther King Jr. Day!

If you're looking for a good way to observe the event, here's a suggestion from today's Herald-Dispatch:
The Meeting is a critically acclaimed play depicting a fictional meeting and discussion in a hotel room between Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, two of the strongest voices of the civil rights movement.

It will be presented at 6 p.m. Monday in the Joan C. Edwards Performing Arts Center on Marshall's campus. The program, which is free, also includes members of Alpha Kappa Alpha and Delta Sigma Theta sororities paying tribute to the women of the civil rights movement, specifically the wives of King and Malcolm X, Coretta Scott King and Betty Shabazz.

Members of the Martin Luther King Jr. Male Chorus of Charleston also will perform.
Sounds like a great show - recommended!
