I, Too by Langston Hughes?
Last month I went to see a play at the Ordway Theatre in Minnesota and somebody in it recited this poem by Langston Hughes:
"I, too, sing America.

I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.

Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
'Eat in the kitchen,'
Then.

Besides,
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed--

I, too, am America."

Can somebody please tell me what play it was?
I am completely clueless.
