The Robey Theatre Company in association with The Latino Theatre Company and Kathie Foley-Meyer presents

BRONZEVILLE

Written by Tim Toyama & Aaron Woolfolk

Directed by Ben Guillory

Bronzeville opens today June 29th and runs through July 21st at The Los Angeles Theatre Center 514 S. Spring Street, Los Angeles, CA 90013.
The play Bronzeville opens in the Summer of 1942 after the implementation of Franklin D. Roosevelt's Executive Order 9066 leading to the interment of over 120,000 Japanese Americas for the duration of World War II.  Bronzeville refers to a section of Los Angeles, California mostly inhabited by Japanese Americans during that time.  Once the execute order was carried out and Bronzeville stripped of its inhabitants, the now abandon buildings of homes and businesses became a source of what seemed like opportunities for the influx of Black American citizens, mostly migrating from the South to Los Angeles. 
Bronzeville is a fictional story based on the truth of what happen during that time in American history when a Black family, the Goodwins, discover a Japanese American Man, Henry, "stowed away" in their new home.  As the story unfolds the Goodwin's find themselves engaged in a quandary: Do they do what they feel is moral or do they do what they feel is right?
