Written & Directed by Michael Hagins

Cast: Mary Sheridan (Martha Shepherd), Michael J. Whitten (Senator Calvin Shepherd), Xavier Rodney (Danny Johns), Olivia Whicheloe  (Corrine Shepherd)

A new play by Michael Hagins. The Senator Speaks touches on a myriad of today’s troubling issues in American Society, from reproductive rights to gun control. This play tells the story of Republican senator Calvin Shepherd, who is working to grow in his political career, but one morning just before a keynote speech to the NRA, a school shooting takes place only miles from where he lives, which brings to light many dark secrets and pits the whole family against each other, all while social media does its circus.

This production is part of the African American Playwrights Initiative at the ATA.  ATA supports all artistic voices and remains committed to DE&I.
