Description: "Dael Orlandersmith, combines theatre, poetry and music in a powerful, sizzling, fierce symphony of the diverse voices that make up her neighborhood, people drawn from both her life and her imagination. She introduces us to a range of characters, from an elderly Polish Holocaust survivor who has a chance meeting with Billie Holiday; to a poetic young junkie; to a teenage Puerto Rican punk; to a washed-up rock'n'roll star; to a seventy-year-old New Yorker from Harlem heading to the West Village to see Nina Simone"--P.
