‘Angela Davis, A History of the United States’ staged at Rooke Theater

One might not expect a “History of the United States” from a French theater company, but Compagnie L’Héliotrope’s production of “Angela Davis, A History of the United States” did just that this past weekend at Rooke Theater. The one-woman play features a combination of monologues, music and media that provide an insightful look into the life and work of African-American scholar and activist Angela Davis from an international perspective.
