Savion Glover and George C. Wolfe’s 'Bring in 'da Noise, Bring in 'da Funk' completely revolutionized the modern commercial stage landscape, opening at the Ambassador Theatre in 1996, running for an astonishing 1,130 performances, and sweeping four major Tony Awards. Subtitled "A Tap Dance Discourse on the Black Diaspora," the groundbreaking musical revue completely discarded traditional linear book structures to use an explosive, rhythmic blend of hip-hop, tap dance, and blues to trace the history of Black America from slavery and industrialization to contemporary urban isolation. Directed by Wolfe with Glover’s visceral choreography, the historic premiere starred Glover alongside Jeffrey Wright.
