Opening Performance
“You thought you was gonna sing a song about racism and change the world” – Bones
Tambo and Bones find themselves in a fix: they’re trapped in a minstrel show. And it’s damn hard to know what’s real and what’s not. The escape plan? Get famous…cash in…and get even. This time-traveling hip-hop fantasia from slam poet turned playwright Dave Harris dares to say the quiet part out loud, wrestling with America’s racist past and present and exploding its post-racial future.
“will make you second-guess everything you do in a theater…Tambo & Bones gets the highest possible marks” - TheaterMania
“…INVENTIVE AND IMMERSIVE, constantly shape-shifting to both unsettle and surprise us.” —Indulge Magazine
