The Meeting

By Jeff Stetson

Starring Calvin Moody Jr. and S.C. Stepney

"The Meeting" is loosely organized around three arm-wrestling matches between King and Malcolm X--a metaphor for the ideological struggle between the passive resistance emphasized by the former and the militancy championed by the latter.  The play is set exactly one week before Malcolm X was gunned down in 1965. King suffered the same fate  in 1968.  The play received a Louis B. Mayer Award and eight NAACP Theatre Awards and has been staged throughout the United States and Europe.  This fictional story of a nonfictional meeting (both took what was said there to their graves) is the only show that is not an original TADAOW production.
