Sojourner Truth: Soul Murder is a one-woman show written and directed by Percy Thomas about one of Americas amazing enslaved black women. The play captures her early days in slavery as a child to her escape. The show details  Sojourner Truth’s walk away from slavery, and miraculous name change.  The performance is narrated by Sojourner Truth, as she reveals her rebellious nature and the abuse she experienced in slavery.  She reveals that there  is no difference between northern slavery and southern slavery. According to Sojourner, slavery is Soul Murder wherever it exist. Despite the hardship encountered in slavery she survives to give her most memorable speech in 1851 to persuade people that women, black or white, should have rights equal to men.

Amazing Theatre Company’s mission is to create performing arts opportunities of social significance for the Black/African American community specifically, and the wider community in general.  One of several intangible values Amazing Theatre brings to Montgomery County, is a creative voice that produces stories of historical, social, and culturally lived experiences of Black/African Americans.  To ensure that our productions tell not only the Black/African American story, the Theatre partners with other ethnic groups to share and bring together a world view on various topics that impact the life blood of our community. 

With this ideology, Amazing Theatre contributes to community theatre by: 

1. supporting, educating, training, and developing artists.
2. inspiring, producing, and assisting new playwrights.
3. fostering relationships in the community to increase diverse audience participation.
4. producing historical and socially relevant African American plays.
