PAUL ROBESON THROUGH HIS WORDS AND MUSIC, performed by Derrick McQueen and written by Gayle Stahlhuth, is an interweaving of two dozen songs that were sung by New Jersey native, Robeson, with a narrative of his life as an actor, singer, activist, and humanitarian. Derrick has performed it at venues including Crossroads Theater and Newark PAC as part of NJ Theatre Alliance's Stages Festival, the Wildwood Convention Center for an NAACP fundraiser, The Puffin Foundation, and as a fundraiser at North Carolina Stage Company in Asheville, NC.

CLASSIC AMERICAN TALES aims to tell America’s stories “one tale at a time” by presenting dramatic and literary gems from fifty years ago and before – gems that still resonate - and contemporary works relating to the past, all involving the many facets of what it means to be “American.” https://www.ClassicAmericanTales.org
