PoetWarrior Productions LLC, in partnership with the Black Rock Coalition (BRC), is presenting a live, all-star reimagining of Sly & The Family Stone’s dark masterpiece, There’s A Riot Goin’ On at Webster Hall on Wednesday, October 23, 2024. The concert will feature performances by the BRC Orchestra (the Black Rock Coalition’s all-star repertory company of premiere musicians), as well as luminaries such as Vernon Reid and Corey Glover of Living Colour, Lisa Fischer, Bernard Fowler, Sophia Ramos and Kokayi.
