Black History Month events at Fantasy Theatre Factory in Miami

Heroes In My House is an important journey through black history.
The story follows a young Black student who’s just been assigned to make a presentation about an important figure from Black History. The only problem? The history book has way too many choices! She makes her way to Grandma’s kitchen for her words of wisdom. That’s where things go a little unexpectedly. Turns out Grandma’s kitchen is MAGICAL and before she knows it, the titans of Black History have sprung from the pages of his book and are there with her… in the house!

Sensory-inclusive performances are designed to create a performing arts experience that is welcoming to all families with children living with autism and other disabilities or sensory sensitivities.

Show details:
Saturday, February 4 at noon; $5 tickets can be purchased here.
