I'm looking forward to opening the "The Baldwin I Giovanni Experience" again at Evanston's Fleetwood-Jourdain Theatre with pianist Isaiah Jones, Jr. Get your tickets now, they're going fast.
In 1971, James Baldwin and Nikki Giovanni sat down for a thought-provoking conversation about racism, manhood, writing, and teaching. Their words are still as relevant today as they were then. Tim Rhoze and Bria Walker have taken this important conversation and created a dynamic theatrical experience infused with spoken word, prose, original music, choreography, and mural artwork. It will be an intellectual and artistic journey of a lifetime.
