read the SF Chronicle review! SURFACE TRANSIT written and performed by Sarah Jones directed by Tony Taccone April 18—June 1, 2003 Thrust Stage running time: 1 hour and 40 minutes, no intermission Read an Interview with Sarah Jones in the SF Chronicle “your revolution will not happen between these thighs … the real revolution ain't about booty size the Versaces you buys the Lexus you drives … ” In the tradition of the wildly successful Lily Tomlin and Whoopi Goldberg, the vivacious and outspoken performance artist Sarah Jones brings her critically-acclaimed piece Surface Transit to Berkeley Rep. As a recognized up-and-coming African American poet and spoken word performer, Jones weaves savvy political humor and arresting language into a collection of monologues detailing the disparate yet cosmically linked lives of eight idiosyncratic New Yorkers. Hailed as “Off-Broadway’s goddess of the quick change”, Jones presents a dissection of prejudice imbued with characters that share hilariously provocative stories. Sarah Jones appeared in Spike Lee’s film Bamboozled, and recently performed for the United Nations. PRODUCTION SPONSORS          SEASON SPONSOR CORPORATE SPONSOR
