The B-Side at St. Ann's Warehouse - Dumbo
This week we saw The B-Side at St. Ann's Warehouse in Dumbo, Brooklyn. Eric Berryman, actor, was inspired by a similar show of Shaker Spirituals, and the Director of that show for the Wooster Group directed this performance. For one hour, Eric and two back-up singers, sang Negro Folklore Work Songs by Prisoners at the Texas State Penitentiary. The record on which this was based was produced in 1964. We really enjoyed it, and dinner at Cecconis was excellent.
