Originally developed as part of Victory Gardens 2018 Ignition Festival of New Plays, "The First Deep Breath" tells the story of Pastor Albert Jones and his family as they plan a special church service to honor their late daughter Diane on the sixth anniversary of her passing. But when Abdul-Malik, the eldest son he blames for her death returns home from prison, the entire Jones family is forced to confront a hornet’s nest of long-buried family secrets. Old skeletons claw their way to the dinner table, picking at the scraps of Mother Bethel Baptist’s First Family. Written with a ferocious passion by Lee Edward Colston II and directed by Steve Broadnax III, "The First Deep Breath" finds each member of the Jones family desperately fighting to stay afloat, sometimes the family that stays together drowns together.
