This spring, join us for American Ethnic - the third annual production of Remy Bumppo thinkTank. This year's presentation features three nationally recognized spoken word artists - Usman Ally, Idris Goodwin, and Kelly Zen-Yie Tsai - who will collaborate on an original work combining hip-hop, spoken word and theater aesthetics to examine the mass media's role in perpetuating cultural norms surrounding race and gender. This world premiere production will be directed by Nick Sandys.
