Summary "Insurrection: Holding History is a remarkable debut by a talented new theatre artist and winner of the 1998 Oppenheimer Award for Best New Playwright. The story of a young African-American graduate student transported back through time, with his 189-year-old great-great-grandfather, to Nat Turner's infamous slave rebellion, this play is a metaphorical investigation of the scars of repression on both race and homosexuality in America. Robert O'Hara has received numerous awards for Insurrection, which was originally produced under his direction at The Joseph Public Theater/New York Shakespeare Festival."--Publisher's description.
