There is a new musical touring, called "Crowns", based on the book of the same name, that is about the lives, dreams, and aspirations of a group of black church women, presented by way of a discussion of the hats that they wear to church. The music is all gospel, (including many of those sung by Sister Shirley) and is absolutely incredible--Was in Atlanta, is in DC now(but sold out) and will open in Chicago in March--
