Colman Domingo’s ‘DOT’ to Play NYC’s Billie Holiday Theatre

Posted by | Ray Cornelius 

If you’re in New York City, then you’re in for a treat. Colman Domingo‘s hit play DOT is on stage now through November 18 at the famed Billie Holiday Theatre. The show features the cast from this summer’s Atlanta production and is directed by Tony Award winner Kenny Leon.

In the Shealy house, Christmas means time for family gatherings. Only this holiday, Dotty and her three grown children gather with more than the holiday spirit in mind. As Dotty struggles to hold on to her failing memory, her children must fight to balance care for their mother and care for themselves. Crackling with humor, this lucid comedy grapples aging parents, midlife crises, and the heart of an urban West Philly neighborhood.

DOT features the incomparable Denise Burse along with Tinashe Kajase-Bolden, Gilbert Glen Brown, Amber A. Harris, Rhyn Mclemore Saver, Lee Osorio and Benedetto Robinson.
