"Leslie Odom, Jr. returns to Broadway for the first time since his Tony Award-winning performance in Hamilton.
Purlie Victorious: A Non-Confederate Romp Through the Cotton Patch is the rousing, laugh-filled comedy by Kennedy Center honoree Ossie Davis that tells the story of a Black preacher’s machinations to reclaim his inheritance and win back his church. Directed by Tony Award winner Kenny Leon (A Raisin in the Sun, Fences, Topdog/Underdog), this inspiring and delightful comedic masterpiece became the source material for the beloved hit musical, Purlie."

Reposted from @purliebway Tony Award® winner Leslie Odom, Jr. returns to Broadway in Ossie Davis’s “marvelously exhilarating” (The New York Times) play. Performances began September 7th, 2023!
Enjoy an evening in the theatre that will lift you up and “won’t let you wipe that grin off your face” (The New York Times).
