Boston Playwrights' Theatre
January 20 - February 5, 2005
1966: A Boston janitor dies his life seemingly
unremarkable.
1976: One hundred and three glass negatives are discovered in
his basement. Hauntingly defiant, the sitters in the
photographs demand attention. They insist that the veil hiding
them from Boston’s history be lifted forever.
Mystery and image combine to tell the story of Hubert Collins,
one of Boston’s first black photographers, whose life
dissolved into obscurity after the close of his Roxbury
studio. Don’t miss this world premiere from local playwright
Kirsten Greenidge, heralded by the New York Times for her
“colossal imagination.”
