LOVE AND ABOLITION by Phanésia Pharel Directed by Tinashe Kajese-Bolden Staged Reading: Sun., April 19 at 5 pm. Love and Abolition is a completion of Jane Austen’s unfinished novel, The Brothers. It is the only novel in which Jane Austen introduced a black character, and in this adaptation, by a black woman, we pay homage to Austen's singular formula while asking - What does it mean to be an abolitionist?
