Novellus Theater says…

If Marc Bamuthi Joseph seems to garner an absurd number of accolades (National Poetry Slam Champ, San Francisco Bay Guardian GOLDIE winner, too many grants to count), it's for good reason. Besides serving as artistic director for the Living Word Project, the Oakland artist is passionate about bringing hip-hop into conversation with different cultures. His latest work, the break/s, is a typically bravura performance piece drawing on dance, spoken word, music, and video. Partly inspired by local author Jeff Chang's hip-hop tome, Can't Stop Won't Stop, Joseph folds his own personal history into hip-hop's splintered legacy.
