About
SPHERE: THE THELONIOUS MONK STORY is a new stage play, making its Washington premiere as part of the DC Black Theatre Festival. It's a unique exploration of racial politics, mental illness, and the nature of genius – in a fascinating portrait of one of America’s greatest artistic figures. The title character, Thelonious Sphere Monk, engages in an abstract and circular conversation with his psychiatrist as they both try to make sense of his life and music.
