Gator Tales: Featuring Stories from the UF Samuel Proctor Oral History Program’s African American History Project

February 13, 2015 @ 7:30 pm - April 22, 2015 @ 4:00 pm

“Gator Tales” is an original play devised and directed by Kevin Marshall in conjunction with SPOHP, using the unique experiences of African American students at the University of Florida, from the first students who attended more than 50 years ago to members of the current student body. The performance will dramatize honored stories from the UF Samuel Proctor Oral History Program’s Alachua County African American History Project.

Admission is $13 for UF students, faculty and staff, and seniors, and $17 for members of the public.

This live theatre performance brings vividly to life the voices of those who first struggled for civil rights and the generations that followed. This world premiere speaks passionately to the heart of our community.
