Something Amazing!
The DuSable Museum
of African American History in association with the Chicago Department of
Cultural Affairs and Special Events present, "Rodney King" written and performed
by Roger Guenveur Smith. DATE: Saturday, January 24, 2015 TIME: 7:00pm 10:00pm,
COST: Admission FREE. Reserve Seats Today!
Rodney King was
thrust into international prominence in 1991 when beaten by members of the Los
Angeles Police Department. In response to a jurys acquittal of the four indicted
officers a year later, Los Angeles exploded into the deadliest riot in the
nations history. Roger Guenveur Smith negotiates Rodney Kings subsequent odyssey
as the first reality TV star in an intimate, ingeniously devised conversation
with the deceased King, who expired in his backyard swimming pool in 2012.
