#rundontwalk An artful evening, fuel for the soul. 🎨✨ ​Roger Guenveur Smith’s In Honor of Jean-Michel Basquiat is nothing short of breathtaking. Carrying the full weight of brilliance and profound grief, Smith delivers a sharp, hauntingly beautiful one-man show - Rooted in his real life friendship w/ Basquiat, the piece captures the ambition, shared pressure, and tragic vulnerability of a genius lost far too soon. It’s raw, deeply personal, and incredibly moving. ​Huge thank you to Patricia, director of New York Theatre Workshop, for being a FORCE. ​The night didn't end when the lights came up—the Saturday Salon that followed with Ari Grooves, Dr. Joan Morgan, and Daniel J. Watts was also pure magic and such a rich continuation of the conversation. ​Lastly, Happy Birthday to Leroy McCarthy! 🎂🥳 #bbeautifuldaysaresuchbecauseyoucreatethem. Can't wait to see @owendippie finished Basquiat piece. 🇳🇿 ​#JeanMichelBasquiat #RogerGuenveurSmith #NYTW NewYorkTheatreWorkshop BlackArt TheatreReview SaturdaySalon
