CTH Presents Van Peebles' 'Ain't Supposed To Die' Outdoors

BroadwayWorld.com: "A totally unique fiction form, AIN’T SUPPOSED TO DIE A NATURAL DEATH is a gutsy, lusty narrative of Black street life that explores every aspect of ghetto life. Peopled by junkies, pimps, drag queens, crooked cops, lovers, and dreamers, Van Peebles' play is considered a tradition-shattering and trend-setting work that spawned the choreopoem, spoken word, and rap music. AIN’T SUPPOSED TO DIE was a huge hit on Broadway in its original inception, where it was nominated for seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical."
