Died #otd Micki Grant (1929-2021), American singer, 4 years ago today #MickiGrant life story...

Theater program entitled 'Don't Bother Me, I Can't Cope'. On a red background, a black silhouette of a group of 8 dancing humans is shown. All have arms raised high and apart. The title in white stands out inside black silhouette..

Photo and blurb of Micki Grant, who wrote the play.

Rear cover of the program with exuberant free-hand printing which breaks all the rules. It mentions every song, credits the author & producers. With review blurbs and more. The title dominates the center portion and the entire panel is filled with text.

Just found this musical theatre program from 1972, written by #MickiGrant .The art student in me is fascinated by the hand-drawn typography, especially the explosive back cover. And isn't the title a fitting one for these troubled times?. #theatre #booksky #musicals #AfricanAmerican #PerformingArts
