Mama, I Want to Sing! was written by the foundation's Executive Director, Vy Higginsen, and her husband, Ken Wydro. The inspiring story is based on the life of Vy's sister, the renowned soul and R&B singer, Doris Troy. Mama! premiered at The Heckscher Theater on March 23, 1983 and ran for eight years with 2,800 performances in Harlem, and another 1,000 performances throughout the United States, Europe, Japan, and the Caribbean. In February 2023, Mama, I Want to Sing! returns! Come celebrate the 40th anniversary of this story of family, faith, love and music.
