Ground Up & Rising proudly presents
"The Hate U Gave: The Tupac Story".
Written and Starring Meshaun Labrone Arnold.
Directed by Arturo Fernandez

From Carbonell nominated and critically acclaimed South Florida actor / playwright Meshaun Labrone Arnold comes The Hate U Gave: The Tupac Shakur Story, an incendiary journey into the mind of Tupac through the playwright's eyes. The intensity unfolds inside the mind of a man imprisoned by his past, society, self, reality, and regret, as he fights to wrestle away freedom from the enemies that lie within. His adversaries are reflections from his thoughts, each character representative of the demons that haunted his life, mind, and soul until his death.

Sun-Sentinel 's Theatre Critic, Bill Hirschman says
"The Hate U Gave: The Tupac Shakur Story may be the most thought-provoking and lacerating evening in South Florida theater this season. A dazzlingly insightful script and mesmerizing performance, both by Meshaun Labrone Arnold, make this a don't-miss production by Ground Up & Rising"
