This is my 4th consecutive summer at City Center after previously working on Little Shop of Horrors, Jamboree, and Bubbly Black Girl. This year, I will serve as the Music Director / Arranger for this production, choreographed and directed by the legendary Savion Glover. With music and lyrics from Micki Grant, this story is a celebration of African-American culture and community. Originally conceived and directed by the first African-American woman to direct on Broadway, Vinnette Carroll, the show brings issues of race politics to the American stage, using a blend of gospel, jazz, soul, calypso, and rock to create voices for change - incredibly poignant for a time when we greatly need to hear these voices.
