PASSING SHADOWS by Carol Welter, directed by Winston Wilson.
November 7-9, 2025 at 7 Stages
Amidst the aftermath of war, a young woman’s quest for truth ignites a heartfelt reunion decades in the making. When Anita—raised as white—meets her birth mother, Nelda, for the first time, long-buried secrets come to light. Born from a forbidden love between a Black girl and a white English boy during a time when such a relationship was unthinkable, Anita is driven to uncover her true roots and meet the father she never knew.
As three lives collide with their own hopes and hidden agendas, Passing Shadows explores powerful questions: What does it truly mean to belong? Can love challenge the rules of a divided society? And will the truth set them free—or tear them further apart? This moving and timely story of identity, legacy, and resilience promises an unforgettable theatrical experience.
