“The Spirit of Harriet” by Leslie McCurdy at Arts Garage By Dale King
The Arts Garage in Delray Beach concludes its 20222023 theater season tonight, Feb. 10 at 8 p.m. with a performance of “The Spirit of Harriet Tubman,” it was announced by Marjorie Waldo, president & CEO of the nonprofit organization. “Arts Garage’s four-show theater season has offered powerful thematic performances so far, and our final production will be both inspirational and soul-stirring,” she added. Tonight’s production, a one-woman show featuring Leslie McCurdy, opens on a barren stage with only a trunk of costumes. McCurdy will thrill her audience with her passionate portrayal of the woman who operated the Underground Railroad that helped slaves find freedom in the mid-1800s. For a breath-taking hour, she embodies Tubman’s immortal spirit from early childhood to her elder years, sharing the life of the famous Society
Underground Railroad conductor by recreating stories familiar and some rarely told, using words said to have been Tubman’s own. Through it all, the audience learns of the faith and conviction that drove Harriet Tubman to follow her dreams.
