So I'm in the Dirrrty Dirrrty this week to do some talks--stand up Arkansas and Elon!--and to see my man Bamuthi Joseph open his play "The Break/s" at the Humana Festival, the premier American showcase for young playwrights.
It's gonna be off the chain, with two turntables and video by Eli Jacobs-Fantauzzi to support Bamuthi's incredible spoken word text and movement. Bamuthi tells me it was partly inspired by Can't Stop Won't Stop, but when you check this I think you'll agree with me that he's on a whole nother level of the game that CSWS couldn't reach.
Here's a piece in Playbill that talks a little about the piece.
If you're in the area, get tickets right now. If not, Bamuthi comes to the Walker in Minneapolis next month and the Yerba Buena Center in SF this summer.
Trust me, I'm not gonna miss any of the performances.
