Press Release




In 1963 Louisiana the world rumbles with change, marked by JFK’s assassination, a rising Civil Rights movement and escalation of the Vietnam War. Caroline Thibodeaux, a divorced African American housemaid irons out a challenging dilemma – to accept loose coins from the pockets of the Gellman family’s laundry and buy her own children a better future or to stay awash in the memories and burdens of the past by returning the money and hanging on to her principles. What is the price of integrity? What will it take to keep the change? Answers resound in the next generation - Emmie, her teenage daughter, and the young Jewish boy, Noah Gellman - who will help Caroline see how to ride the changing tide. This Tony nominated score features and fuses great American musical styles – gospel, R&B, soul, blues; it swings with power and sings with pride.
