ABSTRACT
There are times when performers are so extraordinary at what they do that you just shake your head in disbelief and laugh. They’re too good; they’re laughably good. Because what they’re doing is, quite simply, out of this world. That’s the great pleasure of Savion Glover and the entire company of the Public Theater’s Bring in da Noise, Bring in da Funk, now successfully transferred to the Ambassador Theater on Broadway. I originally wrote of George C. Wolfe’s production, “Welcome at last to the 21st century.” The show cooks and boils and hits us up with such emotional force and originality that it points the way to the future.
