Synopsis: musical play has a 'vividly exultant vitality and a varied and delightful score by Johnny Brandon that make it genuinely exciting to watch" -Richard Watts, New York Post. It is the odyssey of a now successful black American writer who, having found his own place In the sun, is deeply troubled that his voice is perhaps not clearly heard with those of his brothers who demand Freedom now" To find out where he should go from here he retraces his life from the day of his conception in a street rape in Bay Alley, a southern ghetto, on the night Joe Louis became heavyweight champ of the world in 1937. Most of the joy - and there is plenty of it - Is in the good and powerful songs. This all black musical is so buoyant that its effect lasts several hours after the house lights come up." -Edith Oliver, New Yorker.

Synopsis: Based on Peg 0' My Heart by J. Hartley Manners. Updated to the 1930s. Peg, the originally Irish-American heroine who upsets a snobbish upper-class British family, in this musical version is portrayed as an Afro-American, with rather more pungent but equally satisfying romantic results.
