Nationally-acclaimed poet Marc Bamuthi Joseph uses spoken word, multi-media and dance in this interdisciplinary work where the form and sensibility of Hip-Hop reconfigures and impacts the concept of theatrical performance. Word Becomes Flesh is a fluid, evening-length choreopoem that critically, lyrically and choreographically examines the commercialization of the Black Male body from the cotton fields to the athletic fields to the digital plantation and all the spaces in between.
