TEXAS DEBUT
The B-SIDE: Negro Folklore From Texas State Prisons
A Record Album Interpretation
and UNTITLED TOAST
Jan 26-29 & Fri, Feb 4 | McCullough Theatre

“The experience is history in melody...forging bonds through music. ” — The Washington Post

THE B-SIDE is an original performance based on an LP of work songs, spirituals, and toasts recorded in 1964 in Texas’ then-segregated prison farms. Eric Berryman, Jasper McGruder, and Philip Moore channel the inmates’ voices, via in-ear receivers, and transmit them live. Berryman also provides context from the book Wake Up Dead Man: Hard Labor and Southern Blues by Bruce Jackson, the folklorist who recorded the album..

UNTITLED TOAST is work-in-progress companion piece showing on Fri, Feb 4 that Wooster Group will develop as part of their residency with Texas Performing Arts.
