Word Becomes Flesh. Sunday January 15 4pm.














Presented in collaboration with 651 Arts (a fav), Marc Bamuthi Joseph/ The Living Word Project created an amazing hip hop theater piece that was a throwback to the early 2000 poetry scene. Movement contextualized into words, and/or vise versa I got a sense of the momentum of the men's stories. Exploring notions of black masculinty, adulthood, and fatherhood, we (the audience) witness an intimate portrayal of tough decisions a young black male faces coming of age and beginning adulthood, all which appears to happen without much space in between.

I saw the final showing at the Public Theater during the Under the Radar Festival.
