Word Becomes Flesh at Atlas Performing Arts Center

Acclaimed artist Marc Bamuthi Joseph leads a talented collective of performers through spoken word, dance, djing, and visuals reflecting a young single father's thoughts and emotions in anticipation of his unborn son. As women continue to live out the pro-life vs. pro-chouce debate, men live out their social right between committing to fatherhood vs. absenteeism from responsibility. Word Becomes Flesh critically and lyrically examines this domestic phenomenon within the constructs of the hip-hop culture.
