The Lion of Freedom,” a one-man show about the life of America’s greatest abolitionist.

St. Ann Church, 357 Dorrance Street, Bristol, Pennsylvania. www.brtstage.org.

Anna Deveare Smith's play based on the 1991 Crown Heights Riots. What everyone agreed on: Two cars collided. One, driven by a Hasidic Jew, veered off the road and critically injured two Black children, one of whom ultimately died. A crowd formed. Police arrived. What no one agreed on: Anything else. In the summer of 1991, Crown Heights, New York, exploded into three days of violence fed by rumors and competing narratives formed from incomplete facts. $52 to $62.
