REVOLUTION(S)
by Zayd Ayers Dohrn
Music And Lyrics by Tom Morello
Directed by Steve H. Broadnax II
https://www.goodmantheatre.org/show/revolutions-2/Put your hands on the wheel of history.
When soldier and aspiring musician Hampton Weems comes home from Afghanistan, he finds the South Side of Chicago is also occupied territory—and he’s accidentally joined the resistance. Rock and Roll Hall of Famer (Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave and The Nightwatchman) Tom Morello brings a ground-breaking new punk/metal/hip-hop musical to our intimate Owen Theatre about a young artist finding his voice, why violence is as American as cherry pie, and how young radicals—across generations—are still motivated by love.
