SUMMARY:Try/Step/Trip
DESCRIPTION:Dahlak Brathwaite’s \nTry/Step/Trip\nFebruary 20, 21 & 
 22, 2020\nDance Mission Theater\nSan Francisco, California\n\n“You d
 on’t want to miss out on this powerful performance”\n - Water Tow
 er Arts\n\n\nWriter/composer Dahlak Brathwaite and director Roberta Un
 o’s immersive theatre experience, Try/Step/Trip makes it’s Bay Are
 a debut February 20-22, 2020 at San Francisco’s Dance Mission Theate
 r. Try/Step/Trip is a spoken word, multi-character musical that uses t
 he language and tradition of step dance to captivate audiences. The pi
 ece features principal choreography by Toran X. Moore and Freddy Ramse
 y Jr. with additional choreography by Delina Patrice Brooks with compo
 sitions by Brathwaite himself, in collaboration with GRAMMY nominated 
 producer Teak Underdue.  \n\nTry/Step/Trip emerges from the belief t
 hat the subjugation of Black people is an American ritual; that the cr
 iminal justice system now functions as a normalized rite of passage fo
 r too many young Black males. Try/Step/Trip offers an alternative ritu
 al; a rite of passage orchestrated to save one of the justice system�
 �s newest inductees from the ultimate plight of criminalization: to be
  remade in the image of its judgment.  The story follows the journey 
 of an anonymous narrator as he re-imagines his experience in a court-o
 rdered drug rehabilitation program. Inspired by Brathwaite’s own his
 tory, Try/Step/Trip layers characters, poetic verse, and dialogue over
  music to create a theatrical piece that blurs the lines between hip-h
 op and dramatic performance. World views are delivered within musical 
 numbers, ancestors are conjured through step, and archetypes are sampl
 ed from pop culture and folklore, all to guide a familiar young Black 
 man in his unique search for redemption and self-definition.\n  \nTr
