Event Description

The Throwdown brings street theatre to the stage and takes the audience tinto the imagination of a youg man struggling for a "true" democracy. Through spoken word comedy and surreal musical numbers, headRush takes us on a psycho-political trip through this homeboy's subconscious where elements of the corporo-tocracy take superhuman form...a world where powerful fiends use hyper-surveillance to maintain their grip on inner city youth, manipulate Homeland (in) Security over the US/Mexico border, and flood consumers with endless glittering golden distractions. This satirical mash-up invites audiences to participate in a vision for change.
