EMERGENCY 

A slave ship emerges in front of the Statue of Liberty  sending New York City into a whirlwind of emotion and exploration in this explosive   solo tour de force featuring slam poetry, song and a cast of 40   characters who all respond to the unexpected phenomenon. 

"Funnier than most serious plays and vastly smarter than most funny plays,  Daniel Beaty's Emergency is inspired."-New York Magazine  "By the end, I was on my feet shouting like someone in church."
--Ruby Dee

THROUGH THE NIGHT

Six characters. Three generations. One extraordinary performance.  Obie nominated and AUDELCO Award Winner Daniel Beaty shines as a writer and a performer in a range of characters,  spinning a tale where lives collide to show how hope,  faith and love have the ability to pull anyone 

Through the Night. Through the Night is "a thing of beauty, wit, grit and piercing lyricism."
-- New York Times
