Academy Award Viewing Party Honors African Americans in Film and Theatre
The Robey Theatre Company Board of Directors in partnership with the African American Film Critics Association and Friends is hosting a red carpet Oscar Party.
“Walk the red carpet and help us pay tribute and celebrate Danny Glover, Lou Gosset Jr., Viola Davis, Julius Tennon, Margaret Avery and acknowledge many other past nominated African Americans actors and actresses in film and theatre, says Ben Guillory, Producing Artistic Director. Some of the most wonderful actors’ skills have been sharpened and cultivated in the theatre where they spent much time perfecting their craft. We want to salute them and honor them”.
The Robey Theatre takes its name from the pioneering black actor and activist, Paul Robeson. The Robey Theatre has survived for nearly 20 years, transforming audiences with inspirational illuminating real live stories. We are proud to be a place where actors can hone their skills in a supportive environment.
