 http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/50728 \n\nDirected by Sean San Jose 
 \nFeaturing: Myers Clark, Keith Pinto, Tommy Shepherd & Dan Wolf 
 \nCollaborative Team: Sharif Abu-Hamdeh, Mia Baxter, Josh Begley, Duncan 
 Cooper, Robert Hampton, Chinaka Hodge, Joshua McDermott, & Christopher 
 Studley \n\nAngry Black White Boy is based on Adam Mansbach's ruthlessly 
 funny and scathing satire about the complexities of race and identity in 
 America. Told through the eyes of Macon, a young, white man obsessed with 
 righting the wrongs that have been levied against Black people throughout 
 history, this vigilante story delves into his conflicted mind, psyche and 
 guilt. The play explodes through Macon - a young man burdened by this 
 nation's past and white privilege - as he studiously and compulsively sets 
 out to rob his white taxi passengers in an attempt to somehow balance the 
 scales. However, his robberies go tragically - and comically - haywire, 
 pushing him to the forefront of a national debate. This theatrical 're-mix' 
 for the stage incorporates text adapted and melded with original source 
 material, freestyle and verse rap, live Hip Hop music, ballet and Hip Hop 
 dance. Created with a hybridized style and approach, Angry Black White Boy 
 combines theatrical storytelling with powerful, innovative and contemporary 
 Hip Hop styles. The story of Macon, his conflicted mind and how he escapes 
 or embraces his identity, is part of the complex journey - part satire, 
 part scathing expose on contemporary American culture. \n\nThis exciting 
 new project from Intersection's Hybrid Project is a mixture of history, 
 mystery, music and theatrical mythmaking. By accessing and embracing Hip 
 Hop elements and forms - verse, rap, dance, beatboxing and music - Angry 
 Black White Boy will offer new inroads into expressing and exposing issues 
 of propriety and legacy. The production unites Dan Wolf with his Felonious 
 band-mate, Tommy Shepherd, as they purposefully explore and expand the 
 boundaries of theatre and storytelling, crossing cultural, aesthetic and 
 social borders by by merging growing Hip Hop styles and techniques in order 
 to forge new performance language and styles.\n\n
