    support their elderly parents, who were determined

    to see justice for their son. However, central

    to it all was a man who was a street preacher like

    me, who stood up for himself, and they killed

    him because he only wanted his shoes! His

    dignity in the face of oppression inspired me

    to write this play. As his mentor, the Reverend Dr.

    Martin Luther King Jr., was Marvin’s Muse for

    all those years, the letter from A Birmingham Jail

    became my muse through the voice and vision of

    Marvin Louis Booker Street Preacher!

  • Interview with Devon Goffman star Some Like Hot Tour


    On this episode of Destination Freedom: Black Radio Days – The Eclectic, we go behind the curtain with Devon Goffman — a seasoned Broadway stage veteran whose résumé reads like a greatest hits of musical theater. His voice and presence have lit up theaters from Jersey Boys to Motown the Musical, and now as Spats Colombo in Some Like It Hot…the Tony Award–winning musical comedy that’s been lighting up stages coast to coast.

    Devon gets real about life on the road…the ups, the downs, and what keeps him going from city to city. He talks about finding inspiration and community in places like Denver, working side by side with his wife, and what it’s like playing the villain that everyone secretly loves. And through it all, he reminds us how laughter, music, and a good show can help lighten even the heaviest days.

    It’s a conversation about art, resilience, and the healing power of performance — and one you don’t want to miss it.
