Artist and performer Marc Bamuthi Joseph is one of America’s most vital voices in performance, arts education, and artistic curation. After appearing on Broadway as a young actor, Joseph developed several poetically based works for the stage that toured across the US, Europe, and Africa. He is the artistic director of the 7-part HBO documentary Russell Simmons Presents Brave New Voices; an inaugural recipient of the United States Artists Rockefeller Fellowship, which annually recognizes 50 of the country’s “greatest living artists;” and mentor to young writers with Oakland’s YOUTH SPEAKS. Joseph speaks with Shange, who he has called “one of my greatest influences," about the artistic process, activism and more. Bamuthi will perform excerpts from his works Word Becomes Flesh and red, black and GREEN: a blues.Click here for tickets or call 212-868-4444.
