THURGOOD

Written by GEORGE STEVENS, JR.
Starring MICHAEL ANTHONY TATMON
Directed by PRODAN DIMOV

I didn’t think anything could top the exhilarating high of 2026’s election night results, but it turned out I was wrong. Michael Anthony Tatmon’s performance as Thurgood Marshall in George Stevens Jr.’s THURGOOD soars to heights unknown.
The life of civil rights activist and Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall is full of extraordinary triumphs and traumatic tribulations. The fact that a black man managed to accomplish so much while fighting the strong arm of racism almost reads like science fiction. Put that biography into the storytelling mastery of Tatmon under the sharp direction of Prodan Dimov, and you are fortunate to witness an inspirational and captivating work of art.

This one-night performance is part of the United Solo Theatre Festival and launches the THURGOOD Justice Tour. Check it out at @thurgoodthetour and track it down. It’s worth the trip!
