Royce Hall at UCLA (Los Angeles, CA)
UCLA’s historic Royce Hall hosts a performance of Allen Ginsberg’s Kaddish: A Hal Willner Project. This live staging of Ginsberg’s poem is performed by renowned music producer Willner and director Chloe Webb, accompanied by a live score written and conducted by Grammy Award-winning jazz guitarist Bill Frisell, along with a visual design that features projected paintings by “Gonzo” artist Ralph Steadman. An epic lament to Ginsberg’s loss of his mother and a reflection on his own estrangement from Judaism, Kaddish is a cornerstone of the Beat Generation and has been the inspiration to many artists past and present. Allen Ginsberg’s Kaddish: A Hal Willner Project is a unique, specatcular, off-kilter and fascinating look at one of the last century’s most important poems.
