ATG's most recent production, Till, was embraced by audiences and critics alike! The new musical by Leo Schwartz and DC Cathro, directed by Cezar Williams, introduced audiences to 14-year-old Emmett Till, whose death in 1955 helped galvanize the civil rights movement, and his family and friends, who shared their grief with the world.
