Soundcheck Live from The Greene Space: The cast of “Fela!” plus Dean & Britta
Sahr Ngaujah as Fela Kuti and the Broadway cast of FELA!
In the mid-60s, Andy Warhol made nearly 500 short films of people who frequented his Factory studio in New York, including Lou Reed, Dennis Hopper and Salvador Dali. More than 40 years later, the husband-and-wife duo Dean & Britta was commissioned to create music to accompany these “Screen Tests.” Dean Wareham and Britta Phillips join us for a live performance (and a screening of some of the films) in WNYC’s Greene Space.
