Description

Malcolm X and Redd Foxx Washing Dishes at Jimmy's Chicken Shack in Harlem
 
A Jonathan Norton World Premiere!
 
In the sweltering summer of 1943, two young men – Little & Foxy – forge an unlikely bond over leftover fried chicken and dirty dishwasher. But as the world outside erupts in chaos, their friendship is tested by betrayal, ambition, and the call of history. Inspired by a true story, this gripping world premiere written by DTC’s resident playwright and Interim Artistic Director Jonathan Norton, imagines the moments that shape legends—and the friendships that define them.
