About Hype Man: a break beat play

Frontman Pinnacle and his hype man Verb have been making Hip-Hop together since they were kids. Now that they've got top-notch beatmaker Peep One in the mix, the group is finally on the verge of making it big-until the police shooting of an unarmed black teenager shakes the trio to its core, and forces them to navigate issues of friendship, race, and privilege. From break beat poet and playwright Idris Goodwin (How We Got On), this reimagined version of Hype Man filmed up close and personal asks us: who has the responsibility to speak up in the face of social injustice?

Hype Man is being filmed by The Loop Lab and will run as part of A.R.T.'s Virtually OBERON Series.

Tickets are also now available online and by phone to The Conjurors' Club, an interactive multi-magician virtual experience created by Vinny DePonto and Geoff Kanick, to be performed live MARCH 13 - APRIL 4, 2021.

Household tickets are $58.
