Kevin Hanchard as DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.
Alana Hibbert as CAMAE

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr settles into Room 306 at the Lorraine Motel. He had just delivered his powerful “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” speech about his hopes for the days ahead and the view he has seen of the Promised Land. Room service arrives and he meets a beautiful and mysterious young hotel maid named Camae. Through their profound and ultimately transformative conversation, we hear the hopes and fears of King – both the leader and the man – as he is forced to confront his destiny and his legacy.

Running time is approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes.

There is no intermission.
