“Abraham has created a work of great subtlety and beauty.” The New Yorker Inspired by the neighborhoods of his youth, John Singleton’s 1991 film Boyz n the Hood and W.E.B. Dubois’ classic essay “The Souls of Black Folk,” Pavement pays comedic homage to the bold Kriss Kross/backward jeans/ hi-top fade era in hip-hop, while reflecting on the growth and loss of Pittsburgh’s historically black neighborhoods.

“This is the best sort of film music.” The New Yorker Philip Glass’ interpretation of Jean Cocteau’s masterpiece La Belle et la Bête is his most deeply personal and romantic. For this production, Glass removed the film’s soundtrack and replaced it with his own musical score played live by the Philip Glass Ensemble. The dialogue is also performed live by vocalists who are synchronized with the actors in the film.
