Mixed Blood Theatre in Minneapolis will present Dr. King’s Dream on Friday, January 15 at 7:30 p.m. at Alexandria Technical College. The Diversity Resource Action Alliance of Alexandria is sponsoring the performance.

Dr. King’s Dream is the celebration of the life and career of Dr. Martin Luther King. It features a solo performance by Warren C. Bowles that chronicles King’s career from its beginning during the Montgomery bus strike to his death in Memphis. It captures the dignity, courage, devotion and humanity of a unique American leader.

Both the external events in King’s career and his thoughts on topics ranging from Malcolm X to the police to President Kennedy are included, as is his “I Have A Dream” speech. What emerges is the spirit of a man dedicated to equality through non-violence, to an ideal and to a dream.

Dr. King’s Dream is produced by the Mixed Blood Theatre Company. Founded in 1976 and dedicated to the spirit of Dr. King’s dream, Mixed Blood is a multi-racial professional company promoting cultural pluralism, individual equality and artistic excellence.

There is no charge to attend the performance.
