Theatre 6470 at the Complex (Los Angeles, CA)

A highly original, thought-provoking exploration of race and theatrical performance, Chitlin’ Blues explores what it means to be black, white and everything in between (hence its subtitle, Dancing in the Grey) through the use of dance, sound, movement and silence. Featuring an eclectic mix of physical theatre and vaudeville, this entertaining new work takes a bold look at the power of racial stereotypes and how they’ve shaped the American entertainer, both on and off the stage. It’s performed in tribute to Bert Williams, one of the preeminent entertainers of the vaudeville era.
