Only Just a Minute is a powerful new play inspired by the life, words and writings of Dr. Benjamin E. Mays—legendary Morehouse College president and mentor to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

In the wake of Dr. King’s assassination, a grieving Mays is confronted by a young reporter pushing for more radical resistance. As their conversation unfolds, ideals clash, convictions are tested, and Mays must defend the power of nonviolence—while coming to terms with the loss of his closest friend.

Part historical drama, part personal reckoning, Only Just a Minute blends fact and fiction to explore legacy, leadership, and the enduring hope for peaceful change.
