EMERGENCY
@ THE GEFFEN PLAYHOUSE
|
 Written
& Performed By
Daniel Beaty
Directed
By
Charles Randolph Wright
Award-winning
artist Daniel Beaty portrays a cast of 40 characters
who all respond to a stunning phenomenon. A slave
ship rises out of the Hudson River in front of the
Statue of Liberty sending the nation into a whirlwind
of emotion and exploration in this solo tour de force
featuring slam poetry, multi-character transformation
and song. In his critically acclaimed one-man show,
Beaty takes us on our own 400-year journey in order
to see a clear picture of where we stand now. Through
the character's various testimonies on identity and
personal freedom, Emergency weaves a stirring commentary
on modern black life.
