StreetSigns Center for Performing Literature presents Changing Same: The Cold-Blooded Murder of Booker T. Spicely

A fully produced performance of a new play focusing on the events leading up to and
following the murder of Private Booker T. Spicely, following the 80th anniversary of his
death. On July 8th,1944, Private Booker T. Spicely was headed back home to Camp Butner after
enjoying an evening in the Hayti neighborhood of Durham. He was unaware it would be his
last. In the darkness of that night, he would become yet another victim of Jim Crow “justice.”

The play was commissioned by The Booker T. Spicely Committee, funded by Duke Energy and co-produced by StreetSigns Center for Literature and Performance, Mike Wiley Productions, and The Kenan Institute for Ethics’ America’s Hallowed Ground Project.
