Founded in 2000, The Hip-Hop Theater Festival continues to invigorate the fields of theater and Hip-Hop by: nurturing the creation of innovative work within the Hip-Hop aesthetic; presenting and touring American and international artists whose work addresses the issues relevant to the Hip-Hop generation; and serving young, urban communities through outreach and education that celebrates contemporary language and culture. In each of its Festival cities, New York City, Washington D.C., Chicago and San Francisco, The Hip-Hop Theater Festival presents live events created by artists who stretch, invent and combine a variety of theatrical forms, including theater, dance, spoken word and live music sampling. Through open submissions and aggressive curating both nationally and internationally, the Hip-Hop Theater Festival is fully dedicated to finding, developing and introducing to the public new artistic creations from a diversity of cultures and points of view.
Eight years strong, the Hip-Hop Theater Festival returns in 2008 to its hometown NYC with a line-up featuring the leaders in the field mashing up Hip-Hop and Theater. From Marc Bamuthi Joseph’s global multi-media jam theater experience the break/s, to Danny Hoch’s latest tour-de-force Taking Over, an ode to New York City, and its changing landscape due to gentrification. In between, the Festival will showcase the up-and-coming works of emerging artists such as Lemon, muMs, Baba Israel, Rudi Goblen and Nicole Klaymoon. As always, The NYC Hip-Hop Theater Festival will bring the stories of a generation whose fierce eye focuses towards the clarion that Hip-Hop is a thriving cultural force.

guns, tanks and nuclear bombs are not darwinism these things are not nature
they destroy nature, they destroy hope, they destroy evolution.
Success can be measured in its many forms without destruction
and inspire nature, and inspire hope thereby inspiring evolution.
Ability to love, and complete production with monetary and heartwarming reward is a gift to some and a forever goal the wise.
Wisdom is not weak, destruction is a last stitch effort to mask childish fears and jealousy horrifically matured towards violence and falsity rather than true progression and or King self the conquerer spreading goodwill and true self esteem.
WE can have love, without hate YOU have experienced such, can easily imagine such, and are stronger than such, pathetic excuse.
WE are stronger.
