Cuprins
- Foreword- Class and UK Hip Hop (essay)- Hip hop lyricism (essay)The Plays:- No Milk for the Foxes by Paul Cree and Conrad Murray - Weaving hip hop lyricism with comic naturalism, this play tells the story of two security guards on zero-hours contracts working the night-shift at a washing machine components factory.- DenMarked by Conrad Murray - This solo performance is an autobiographical story that weaves hip hop with Shakespeare's Hamlet. It narrates Conrad's account of growing up in a violent family in South London, as an abused mixed-race child in the social care system, trying to make his way in the world and seek reconciliation with his absent father.- High Rise e(S)tate of Mind by David Bonnik Junior, Paul Cree, Conrad Murray and Lakeisha Lynch-Stevens - Inspired by JG Ballard's novel High Rise, this is the dystopian tale of a high rise tower block in London, interwoven with the performers' personal autobiographical stories about the housing they have lived in.- Reflections (interviews with Beats & Elements)- Glossary
Recenzii
A show with something to say, and a stylish way of saying it.
If there were thousands more like Murray who managed to 'breakthrough' from a working class background to the mainstream Arts, the landscape would be very different to what it is today.
Its dramatic authenticity is pitch perfect.
