MY
NAME IS FLORENCE
JANUARY 31 – FEBRUARY 8, 2026
Who was Florence Price, beyond the music? Composed by B.E. Boykin to a libretto by Harrison David Rivers, My Name is Florence was inspired by writings and correspondence unearthed in the backyard of American composer Florence Price’s family home. With warmth and humor, My Name is Florence explores the complexities of identity, generational connection, and ultimately the power of music to transform.
