An SFBATCO presentation

How do you chronicle 102 years of life? Flood survivor, racial integrator, World War II defense worker, business owner, activist, revolutionary, songwriter, and… park ranger? Bay Area icon Betty Reid Soskin has survived it all. In this World Premiere musical based on her life, acclaimed playwright Michael Gene Sullivan weaves Soskin’s original music in and out of dialogue between The Four Bettys - Little Betty, Married Betty, Revolutionary Betty, and Ranger Betty as they take us through a century of the Negro, Colored, Black, and African-American experiences of this amazing woman. Conceived by Jamie Zimmer, the production boasts music direction by Angie Doctor, choreography by laura elaine ellis, aerial choreography by Joanna Haigood, direction by Elizabeth Carter, and stars Cathleen Riddley as Betty Reid Soskin.

Changing of the seasons in more ways than one. With Ken Cook, Alex Farrell and Dillon Vado, and guests Angie Doctor and Gaby Aldaz.
