Karamu House, the centerpiece of Cleveland’s historic Fairfax neighborhood and the oldest Black producing theatre in the country, presents the soul-stirring, gospel celebration Black Nativity in the Allen Theatre.
Black Nativity is the joyous retelling of the traditional New Testament account of the Nativity story, using gospel music, dramatic dance and a biblical narrative. Written and conceived by legendary playwright and poet Langston Hughes, this soulful, heartwarming story is a Karamu House classic!
