What:
Camden Repertory Theater celebrates Black History Month with a revival of Aishah Rahman’s rarely produced underground classic Unfinished Women Cry In No Man's Land While A Bird Dies In A Gilded Cage. March 12, 1955: virtuoso jazz saxophonist Charlie “Bird” Parker is fading away on the final day of his life in the plush boudoir of his wealthy European patroness. Across town, the spirited teenagers in the Hide-a-Wee Home for Unwed Mothers (the “unfinished women”) must decide whether to keep their babies or put them up for adoption. The Bird is trapped in lost dreams of the past, while the young women look to the possibilities of the future. Mixing poetry and live music into a rich tapestry of longing and love, Unfinished Women possesses a rare and haunting lyricism not soon forgotten.

Camden Repertory Theater uses performing arts as social activism to encourage, heal and transform lives. Presented in a typical Camden, NJ row house with only 20 seats, a Camden Rep production is a truly immersive experience.
