The Wedding Band
By Alice Childress
A love/hate story in Black and White

The play takes place in the summer of 1918, in South Carolina, USA. This
is a love story about a Black woman and a White man who, have maintained
a ten-year relationship and under South Carolina's laws, in 1918, cannot
marry. Family issues, social issues, racial issues, and health issues
all impact on this love story.

Alice Childress gives us a glimpse of a world we rarely know now, but
has absolutely influenced our present behaviour in this, our "Global
Village" of today.
