An Adam Experiment provides a rare glimpse into the life of Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., an historical icon who fought for social justice and equality during the Civil Rights Movement, while also wrestling with his own demons. An Adam Experiment was a part of the 2016 – 2017 Frank Silvera Writers’ Workshop, an arts institution in-residence at RestorationART, as part of a pipeline initiative that moves works from the developmental writing phase to The Billie Holiday Theatre mainstage.
