ROOTED: A Musical Poem
Company
Blackman Productions
Creator
Jewelle Blackman
Runtime
45 minutes

"Rooted what does it mean to me? To be stuck in the ground like this tree." A contemporary fable for the ages, ROOTED begs the question what does it mean to be rooted and how does our idea of being rooted change as we grow? With R'n'B, soul, and soaring strings, this musical poem is brought to life in the heart of Central Park.
