Department of Theatre Series | The party will get cranking by a deejay in the theatre before dancers, poets, graffiti artists, and emcee B-Boy All Star expose the political, social, economic, and religious truths lived by the hip-hop generation. Instead of hiding from the policies begun under Reaganomics, characters representing hip-hop archetypes give voice to their thoughts on music, sex, respect, art, death, politics, and fashion. Part of the evolution of theatre, this piece thoughtfully and playfully demystifies the worldwide revolution that is hip hop.

This production contains adult themes.
