| Synopsis: | J. Fitzgerald honors the universality of the human will to survive and even to thrive under most extreme conditions. Fitzgerald, an award-winning journalist, found himself among the homeless when his life became his drug addiction. Yet, having fallen so far, Fitzgerald did not lose his humanity; instead, he found his song. His choreopoem is a celebration of the tenacity and beauty of the human soul. From slavery to the Holocaust, to the more familiar daily tragedies of poverty and homelessness, the playwright uses poetic verses from many sources, Negro spirituals, gospel, rock and folksongs to create an epic choreo -poem. | |||||
