Follow the adventures of Helen, a precocious 7th grader, and her friend the Queen of Time on a trip through Black history

Seventh-grade Helen has no interest in history until she is whisked away by the Queen of Time to meet Harriet Tubman, Bessie Coleman and other prominent historical figures – not to HEAR about history, but to LIVE it. Will her newfound experience help her solve a modern-day crisis and save her classmate’s future? A time-traveling science fiction romp through Black history. Come for the reading, stay for talkback and thoughtful discussion about this new play from local playwright John Frazier.
