"Frederick Douglass... No Turning Back"

starring Kyle Taylor

also appearing,

Clarence Felder,

directed by

Chris Weatherhead

Frederick Douglass, one of our greatest

American heroes, was an electrifying

orator, abolitionist, Christian leader,

and newspaper editor!

He thrilled audiences across America and

England in his quest to abolish slavery and

create true freedom and equality in America.

The fact Douglass was a slave until he escaped

at age 20 in 1838, is secondary to his astounding

accomplishments as a stunning and eloquent agent

of social reform...he felt God called him to create

freedom for all people in America, so he spent his

life challenging our society.

Kyle Taylor, who stars as Mr. Douglass, has appeared in

theater productions in New York City and Los Angeles,

including A River Niger starring Esther Rolle

(of CBS “Good Times”), MYRON in Black & White in

Hollywood and in "Six Degrees of Separation"

at Center Stage Playhouse, in NYC.

Locally, Kyle created the role of Samuel in the award-winning

docudrama, John Laurens’ War for Moving Images Group at

Actors’ Theatre of South Carolina. He also received rave

reviews for his portrayal of Dr. Martin Luther King in

The Mountaintop for Pure Theatre, Crown in Porgy and Bess

at Dock Street Theatre and as Crooks in Of Mice & Men at

Threshold Repertory Theatre.

Docu-Drama JOHN LAURENS' WAR is based on our play..

REVIEW: “RADICAL SON” World Premiere Play...

by Sandy Katz, American Theatre Critics Association

Showing their passion for authentic American historic heroes,

Chris Weatherhead and Clarence Felder penned another potentially

award-winning play "Radical Son," to keep company with "All For Liberty"

named recently One of Top Ten Revolutionary War Movies by the

Journal of the American Revolution.

Weatherhead directed this memorable and riveting play diligently at

Threshold Repertory Theatre by using on-screen images ...and magnificently

talented costume designers Bruce Bryson, Jean Robertson Hutchinson and

Kathy Pilson.

Felder as Henry Laurens, father of the Radical Son, mesmerized the audience with his Shakespearian-style approach. Robbin Knight as the Radical Son held his own as he challenged his father's philosophy of freedom and slavery, both in contention with his fierce yearning for justice. Adam Miles, Jamie Bellah, Kelvin Curtis, Terry Koster and Elizabeth Leigh Watson all contributed their talents to make this production a great one.
