Great Migrations, in Two Plays
Briefly

Williams's 'Home' delves into the themes of migration and political alienation, echoing many Black plays from that era. The protagonist, Cephus, an iconic figure deeply rooted in the country soil, embarks on a journey reflecting an epic allegory.
The play 'Home' by Samm-Art Williams draws inspiration from his personal experiences, like the protagonist Cephus, hailing from a small town in North Carolina. This connection forms the emotional and thematic foundation of the narrative.
