ON MY DEEN by Antu Yacob

West Philly. Spring 1962. Faye Ann has just joined the Nation of Islam, setting her life on a whole new path. Her best friend, Michael, would like to be a lot more than friends, but the two can’t seem to agree on religion, politics, or even what makes a good pie. Over the passing decades, personal circumstances and cultural upheavals bring Faye Ann and Michael together as much as they keep them apart. Can these would-be lovers find each other while seeking their own paths to peace?

PLEASE NOTE: THE PHILLY CYCLE is a new three-part play commission project set to produce live performances over the next three years. Sponsored by THE WILLIAM PENN FOUNDATION.
