The UNIVERSES performance ensemble's new show Ameriville was a hit at the renowned Humana Festival and is now winning raves across the country. An explosive fusion of storytelling and the infectious rhythms of jazz, Gospel, and hip-hop, Ameriville puts the state of the Union under a microscope -- politics, history, race, poverty, and government -- examining our country through the lens of Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath.
An ensemble of multi-disciplined writers and performers, UNIVERSES' work is as entertaining as it is thought-provoking. Deftly weaving humor, song, and powerful performances, Ameriville says, "Here's the situation. Now...what do you think?"
SUCH A BRILLIANT SHOW! Ugh. so good. Still singing this song.
