Ebony Group & Co. To
Present "God's Trombones"
The Ebony Group and Company from Charlotte will
present) "God's Trombones: Seven Negro Sermons in
Verse" hy Jems Weldon Johnson as the featured entertain
ment at the culmination of the 1979 Jabberwock, Delta
Sigma Theta's annual scholarshipcharity fund raising event.
The program will be on April 7 at 8 p.m. in the Hillside
High School auditorium in Durham.
The Ebony Group and Company, Charlotte's first
independent Black theatrical company, was formed in Nov
ember, 1975. This group was formed to provide a forum
for the Black actor and meaningful, relevant theater for the
Black community. Since its first production of Lonnie
Elder's "Ceremonies in Dark Old Men," the group has
produced, staged, and directed and performed in four
teen different plays. Since 1976, the company has per
formed "God's Trombones" over 30 times in churches
schools, community centers, and community festivals.
The latest success the company encountered was an
adaptation of "Trombones" entitled "A Tribute to the
Black Preacher" performed before a 2,500 capacity
audience in Charlotte's Ovens Auditorium. The accolades
of the audience, the press, and the Charlotte community
for Jhe production surely underscores the fact that the
Ebony Group has fulfilled its stated mission and is a vital
cultural asset to the Black community.
