Be part of history at the regional premiere of Tori Sampson’s groundbreaking play, Cadillac Crew, running from September 6–16 at The Studio@620. This co-production unites Powerstories Theatre and The Studio@620—two trailblazing, community-driven theatres—for the very first time. Cadillac Crew serves as the grand finale of Powerstories’ 25th anniversary season and launches The Studio@620’s 2025–26 season, marking a powerful handoff between legacies.

Set in 1963 Virginia, the play follows four women activists working behind the scenes of the Civil Rights Movement—asking what happens when women’s voices, courage, and leadership are erased from history.

Though rooted in the past, the play speaks directly to now: whose voices are amplified, whose stories are missing, and what it takes to claim space in the fight for equality.

The production is surrounded by community conversations, film screenings, and the visual art exhibition The Unseen Thread: Women Art as Movement, all designed to deepen the dialogue and honor women whose work has shaped change.
