Cynthia Erivo and Cassidy Janson star in the European premiere of the musical drama from multi award-winning Ahrens Flaherty (Ragtime).
Dessa Rose is a young slave faced with a barrage of hardships because of the colour of her skin. Ruth, a young white mother, faces discrimination because of her gender. Set in 1846 and based on the best-selling novel by Sherley Anne Williams, this powerful story follows two young women searching for acceptance and discovering the true value of unconditional friendship.
