Dan Hoyle and the Marsh are hosting a Benefit for Justice In Nigeria Now for Dan’s first show after touring the award winning TINGS DEY HAPPEN in Nigeria!
Dan returns in November from his whirlwind five-city tour in Nigeria sponsored by the U.S. State Department. After the show Dan will engage in a rare Q and A about his experience touring the show in Nigeria and how the show was received.
Seeing Dan’s show is an incredible way to understand the complexities of the current crisis in the Niger Delta. Come to the show, learn about the work of JINN and participation in the Q and A afterward!
What Critics have said about Tings Dey Happen:
“A smart, engrossing, funny, challenging and moving look at… Nigeria’s bloody oil politics….an aptly complex, hard-hitting piece that paints memorably touching and entertaining figures.” –Robert Hurwitt, SF Chronicle
The show, based on Hoyle’s year in Nigeria studying oil politics on a Fulbright Scholarship, will travel to five cities in two weeks this October as part of the State Department’s public diplomacy focus on anti-corruption issues.
Developed with and directed by solo performance master Charlie Varon TINGS DEY HAPPEN is a riveting adventure story, a geopolitical tour de force about the year Hoyle spent exploring the West African oil frontier. The Niger Delta has been targeted as the “new Middle East” of oil security and can be dangerous place. Hoyle traveled alone around the swamps, befriending militants, warlords, diplomats, activists and prostitutes. Even the U.S. ambassador sought him out to find out what was going on. In this time of rising energy politics, and as witnessed by the State Department’s invitation, the show remains, if anything, even more relevant than when it premiered in 2007.Read More
