Gia Scott-Heron daughter of the legend and Poets Jazz House, a fierce band of spoken word artists, are spittin’ fire and blazin’ stages with the powerful intensity of truth. Gil Scott-Heron Bluesology is a theatrical reinterpretation that celebrates the legacy of Gil Scott-Heron. Gil Scott-Heron Bluesology covers his influential work from 1970 to 2010 as his daughter Gia reminisces about her father adding a unique and heartfelt touch to the show.
Gil Scott-Heron is considered the GODFATHER OF RAP because his music reflects the turbulence, uncertainty and increasing pessimism of the times, with a satirical edge told in the tradition of oral poetry and storytelling. The Ensemble cast and Special Guest Artists will help you understand the man, the icon, the legend, Gil Scott-Heron!
