My Grandmother Prayed For Me

A Gospel Musical for troubled times

After 18 years, this stirring Off-Broadway production returns to New York City, yet its messages still ring as clear as ever. Written and produced by Adrian Williamson, an aficionado of the Gospel Stage Play world, My Grandmother Prayed for Me explores topical themes ranging from the degradation of family values to gang violence, drugs and their impact on familial relationships.

The story follows a family facing the same struggles many African American families face today. Two brothers are raised by their grandmother and must overcome their disadvantaged start in life while staying away from the temptations of the streets. With a little bit of humour and a lot of gospel music thrown in, the production's unfolding message shines through - no matter how dark the hour, light and hope can be found in God's love.
