The House on Cherry Street | San Antonio News

Step into the soul of San Antonio as “The House on Cherry Street” premieres at the historic Phillis Wheatley High School theater — a bold new stage production honoring the legendary Sutton family. Through powerful monologues, dynamic music, and electrifying dance, this immersive show weaves the city’s Black legacy with the lives of today’s young men, anchored by the very school S.J. Sutton helped found. Created by Cedric “Legacy City” Bellamy, the production celebrates Percy Sutton — attorney for Malcolm X, Tuskegee Airman, civil rights titan, and Apollo Theater revivalist — whose family home on Cherry Street was a beacon of leadership during segregation. With a cast of local Black talent, the show doesn’t just tell history — it makes it feel alive. And it’s giving back: proceeds fund renovations of the Sutton home and equip a youth leadership academy with studio gear. Bellamy’s vision? To launch a performing arts school that teaches young artists not just how to create, but how to thrive financially in the industry. This is more than theater — it’s legacy, inspiration, and opportunity in motion. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
