A follow-up script to the Nationally recognized production, We Were Here (Feb 2021), Clyde A. Wray has created an imaginative glimpse into the lives of Georgina Whetsel and Lena O'Ree.
Georgina Whetsel was a prominent nineteenth-century businesswoman who had a monopoly over the ice in the New Brunswick ice trade. Lena O’Ree hosted the first black radio show in 1931 when she was only seventeen years old and later went on to become a prominent civil rights activist.
The tale is a whimsical account of their lives as they meet at the gates of Heaven and engage in an enchanting conversation with Saint Peter!
