Student-written play “20|02” a collaboration between TU and MSU
20|02: A Story of Hope Buried in a Baltimore Attic
Directed by Ruben Del Valle Jr., written by Chloe and Kaylah Harvey
A collaboration with Morgan State University (MSU), “20|02: A Story of Hope Buried in a Baltimore Attic” follows TU students and sisters Chloe ’21 and Kaylah Harvey ’23 in 2020 as they piece together a portrait of their father, MSU alumnus David Harvey, who died suddenly in 2002 amid his plan to promote a flag celebrating African Americans. By bridging the past and present through videos and interviews with family members, Chloe and Kaylah discover a man whose unexpected death left a hole in their family and ruptured a plan to uplift African-American communities in Baltimore and beyond. Their discovery proposes new beginnings if they and their family can find a way to mend the past and take up the flag for tomorrow.
