The Bright River (at Brava Theater Center)

Brava Theater Center
San Francisco, CA

A mass transit tour of the afterlife with a live hip-hop score

What if everything after death is just as messed up as it is in life? The rich are still getting richer, the poor are still getting prison -- and everyone still has rent to pay. So to cover the bills, Quick becomes a fixer. A missing persons specialist. He brings the dead back to life. And he wants to know: ARE YOU READY?

"Hop a subway to a restless hip-hop underworld.... A curious and often transfixing amalgam of Jewish, Greek and other folklore, film noir narrative, adventures in mass transit and riveting, beatbox-driven rhythms." - Robert Hurwitt, San Francisco Chronicle
