Théâtre en Anglais : Tired of giving in – The Rosa Parks story

Théâtre en Anglais :

On December 1, 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a white man on a segregated bus. Her name is now famous worldwide because of this single brave act of defiance. Although most of us know nothing else about her.

Far from being a tired seamstress who had simply had enough on that one fateful day, Rosa Parks was, in fact, a lifelong activist and a campaigner for civil rights at a time when to do so was to take your very life in your hands.

“Tired of Giving In” tells the story of Rosa’s life as a campaigner. Set against the disturbing background of the American South with its discriminatory laws and acts of shocking aggression by white people against their black neighbours, the play shines a light on the activism of some of the key players in the burgeoning civil rights movement of the 1950s.

Rosa and her fellow activists played a vital role in the struggle for equality for all Americans. It is an inspiring and often heart breaking story.
