Here is your chance to catch Singin Wid a Sword in Ma Han, winner of the 2009 Audience Favorite Award at the NY International Fringe Festival 2009! Through the NY International Fringe Festival, theatergoers were treated to the ultimate buffet - 201 shows! Of all 201 shows, audiences overwhelmingly voted for Singin (Audience Favorite Award conducted by Theatermania).

Singin Wid A Sword In Ma Han tells a young womans story of love, family and escape to freedom on the Underground Railroad -- interweaving spirituals as escape songs, and showing a surprising range of conductors.

Heres what our reviewers said:

**** Four Stars "Captivating Docudrama" "The vibrant songs are both moving and catchy."

"Anyone who enjoys enthusiastic church choirs and oral storytelling will be singin' along." Time Out NY

effectively enraptures us... a play full of great and simple achievements

"Vienna Carroll and Ade Herbert are both gifted and charming performers" "All the performers have beautiful, resonant voices..."

"simply and effectively directed by Keith E. Johnston... skillfully lit by Peter Leonard." NYTheatre.com
