The REALNESS: another break beat play
June 17-26
By Idris Goodwin. Directed by Kyle Haden. A regional premiere!
In 1996, T.O. graduates from his high school in the suburbs and jumps into the vibrant culture of his true passion, hip-hop. Enter Prima, a dazzling MC with Lauryn Hill vibes, who takes his breath away. T.O. poses as a music journalist to get close to her, but when his story catches up to him, he must decide, in the words of his idol Biggie, is it “all a dream”? The Realness tackles history and class collision in a humorous and real way, with unique rhythm and beats.
Show Length: one hour and forty minutes, no intermission.
