In "Adapting History," musical artist Dahlak uses spoken word poetry to narrate the sometimes tense, sometimes strained history of our nation. This musical chronicle shows that despite struggle, conflict, and misunderstanding, we can still learn, adapt, and be brilliantly creative. This new work was commissioned by Montalvo Arts Center and had its world premiere on February 9, 2016 in the Carriage House Theatre as part of the Performing Arts Series for Students.
