Support for WYCE comes from the Civic Theatre, presenting Caroline, or Change June 3-19. The show tells a story of the bittersweet world of a black maid emotionally caught between the values of the family she works for and her community's shifting hope in the 1963 Era of JFK, Martin Luther King, and Vietnam.  Inspired by the sounds of Motown, delta blues, Gospel and Broadway.  ONLY at Grand Rapids Civic Theatre, June 3-19 visit GRCT.org for tickets.
