Sing Truth to Power
Featuring “The Man Behind the Dream”
Special guests Carole Jeanpierre-Finch and D. Kevin Williams
June 16, 2018
Holland Performing Arts Center
Come hear the Nebraska debut of “The Man Behind the Dream,” the multi-movement work composed by Steve Milloy that honors the life of civil rights activist Bayard Rustin. Rustin, a gay man, was a close advisor to Martin Luther King Jr. and the main organizer of the 1963 March on Washington. Singing with the chorus to help tell the inspiring story of Rustin will be special guests Carole Jeanpierre-Finch and D. Kevin Williams. In addition to the Rustin piece, the concert will feature great Pop and Broadway songs that speak to the chorus’s mission of supporting diversity, inspiring change, and empowering communities. We hope you can join us for this very special performance.
