A gripping reimagination of events the night before the assassination of the civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. On April 3, 1968, after delivering one of his most memorable speeches, an exhausted Dr. King retires to his room at the Lorraine Motel while a storm rages outside. When a mysterious stranger arrives with some surprising news, King is forced to confront his destiny and his legacy to his people.

Katori Hall’s “The Mountaintop” contains strong language and scenes that are intended for a mature audience, only. The play is best suited for those high-school-age or older; therefore, patron discretion is strongly advised for those under the age of 14.
