REBEL VOICES brings voices of dissent to vibrant life Review by: bob, Dec 1, 2007 |
Rob Urbinati may be preaching to the choir with his unembellished adaptation of the cries of political dissent collected by Howard Zinn and Anthony Arnove in "Voices of a People's History of the United States.” But the rebel choristers who faithfully flock to Culture Project will find ideological comfort and camaraderie in the anguished voices of angry Americans who have found themselves politically disenfranchised in what Zinn calls a ... read more “topsy-turvy” world where “the wrong people are in power and the wrong people are out of power.” MARILYN STASIO, Variety
Historian Howard Zinn is well known for championing marginalized perspectives, including those of Native Americans, slaves, and union workers. In Voices of A People's History of the United States, edited with Anthony Arnove, he collected first person essays, court transcripts, and speeches by a wide range of individuals that provide a different way of looking at U.S. history than what is often taught in schools. Playwright Rob Urbinati's stage adaptation, Rebel Voices, now being presented by The Culture Project, brings these voices to vibrant life thanks to a committed cast. |
