The Glory Man
1142 Orange Avenue, Coronado, 92118
Lamb's Players is reprising its popular show. Clarence Jordan and wife Florence founded Koinonia ("Fellowship") Farm, a racially integrated Christian collective in Macon County, Georgia. Attacked, even bombed, by the KKK, the farm led to the creation of Habitat for Humanity. Jordan's decades-long, turn-the-other-cheek battle's a great idea for a play. Dennis Hassel's comedy-drama, however, just sketches in the life and, wearing a constant smile, only skims the surface of a deep reservoir. While Glory Man needs work, the Lamb's Players production is a treat. Director Robert Smyth turns his cast into a chorus of rural sounds and spiritual music. Rick D. Meads heads a strong ensemble as Jordan.
Worth a try.
