Conversation with a Kleagle Tickets

FIRST PRIZE WINNER – 2004 NEW WORKS OF MERIT PLAYWRITING CONTEST Inspired by events in the life of civil rights leader, Walter White, the play takes place during the height of a lynching epidemic in the late 1920's. A black writer, passing for white, travels to the deep South to interview a kleagle (a recruiter for the Ku Klux Klan). When his true racial identity is discovered he escapes, only to find that his rescuer's family paid a dear price, a price that brings the writer back down south to confront the kleagle and the Klan.
