Performance | Heartbeat: An Evening of Song, Dance and Oratory, Hosted by Tony Winner George Faison

Tuesday, February 4, 2014, 7:30 pm

Free

Tony Award Winner George Faison to Host and NY1's Cheryl Wills to Emcee.

A special two-hour evening of entertainment to kick-off Black History Month, celebrate the Emancipation Proclamation and contemplate the outcome if Lincoln had been defeated in his reelection bid. Entitled "HeartBeat," the live event includes stirring music and original dance pieces from and inspired by the period, and readings from historic excerpts by abolitionists Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, and Harriet Beecher Stowe.

Live performances will be followed by a sneak-peek screening of the final hour of Civil War: The Untold Story, a visually stunning new 5-part TV documentary series that shows how political, social and military forces of the war collided in Atlanta during the summer of 1864 - a time when Lincoln's re-election and the Emancipation Proclamation were both hanging in the balance.
