The Black Arts & Cultural Center’s theater troupe the Ali Player’s will present the stage play, “Steal Away”, at 2:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. at the Epic Theater in the Epic Center at 359 S. Kalamazoo Mall Drive, in downtown Kalamazoo.

Set in Chicago during the Depression, this farce is the story of 5 upstanding church ladies who raise funds to send young Black women to college by holding bake sales and the like. Their latest beneficiary, Tracyada, has more ambitious ideas. She wants them all to rob a bank! Of course, the ladies are reluctant to do anything so drastic; but when they are turned down at the bank for a loan to send another young woman to college because the bank manager doesn't think "colored girls" need an education, the ladies contemplate the idea.

Tickets are $15 each or $12 for BACC members/Seniors/Students.  For more information call 269-349-1035.  This production is made possible through the support of the Arts Council of Greater Kalamazoo and the Kalamazoo Civic Theatre.
