BLACK LIGHT Concludes Run At The Greenwich House Theater 11/11

The return engagement of The Public Theater production of Black Light will conclude at the Greenwich House Theater (27 Barrow Street) on Sunday, November 11, following 13 previews and 30 performances. Altogether, Black Light will have played 68 performances in New York this year, starting at Joe's Pub earlier in 2018.

"Daniel and I are thrilled to have extended the life of Black Light in New York because it felt like a very necessary healing experience in this deeply divided time," said producer Diana DiMenna. "We wish the show could play here forever, but are excited to explore more ways to bring Jomama's message to more people in more places, and we can't wait to get started."

Created by Daniel Alexander Jones and starring Jones's alter ego - legendary singer Jomama Jones - Black Light is a musical journey that fuses the Black American Freedom movement, Afromysticism and goddess mythology with the musical influences of Prince, Sade, Diana Ross, and Tina Turner. Black Light removes the barrier between artist and audience, allowing them to bear witness, be witnessed and reflect on the present time.

Black Light debuted earlier this year at Joe's Pub as part of the main stage season at The Public Theater (Oskar Eustis, Artistic Director; Patrick Willingham, Executive Director; Mandy Hackett, Director of Public Theater Productions). Director Tea Alagi? (The Brothers Size) joined the creative team for the transfer.

Black Light features original music by Jomama Jones with Bobby Halvorson, Laura Jean Anderson, Dylan Meek, and Josh Quat. Additional music is by Samora Pinderhughes & Tariq al-Sabir. Music Direction is by Tariq al-Sabir, based upon Samora Abayomi Pinderhughes's original arrangements. The Black Light band includes Josh Quat (guitar), Michelle Marie Osbourne (bass guitar), Tariq al-Sabir (keys / vocals), Sean Dixon (drums), Trevor Bachman (vocals), Vuyo Sotashe (vocals) and Krystal Hawes (vocals).

The production features scenic design by Gabriel Evansohn, lighting design by Ania Parks and Michael Cole, costume design by Oana Botez and Sound Design by Nick Kourtides. Maximum Entertainment Productions serves as General Manager.

Black Light was originally commissioned by The Public Theater's New York Voices program.

For any tickets purchased for performances after November 11th, ticket buyers should contact their point of purchase.
