Leslie McCurdy: Actor, Playwright, Dancer, Choreographer, Singer, “Artist of the Year” and “Outstanding Performing Artist”
For 25 years, Leslie has portrayed the life of the famous Underground Railroad conductor, recreating stories familiar and some rarely told. Through it all, we learn of the faith and conviction that drove Harriet to follow her dreams: the spirit of the past connecting with the present, inspiring her charges to have the courage to envision their future. Leslie has captivated audiences across Canada, the United States and has even played in London, England! Audience members say that the Spirit of Harriet Tubman is a performance everyone should see!
Partial funding for this special event was provided by Arts and Humanities Touring Grant funding, a joint collaboration of Michigan Humanities and the Michigan Arts and Culture Council.
Generously supported by Stuart Jeffares. Part of the Big Night Out Series at Next!
