WHACKED Special Project is bringing Henry Rollins for a rerun at The Baxter Theatre on September 30 at 8.15pm. Dubbed An Evening with Prophetic Punk Rock Motor Mouth Henry Rollins 2016 South African Tour this “provocateur cum humorist” is bound to engage.
Rollins has toured the world as a spoken word artist, as frontman for both Rollins Band and Black Flag and as a solitary traveller with insatiable curiosity, favouring road-less-traveled locales in places such as Nepal, Sri Lanka, Siberia, North Korea, South Sudan and Iran.
His passionate and lucid spoken word shows have proved a favourite for local crowds. Food for thought is planted between his funny observations and verbal snapshots as Rollins recalls his travels to conflict zones and trouble spots ,as well as wild work experiences in sharp detail and signature rapid-fire style.
Central Asia, Africa and South America will feature, as the intrepid wanderer has visited all three recently. When asked what else could be expected, he said: “For the 2016 tour, other possible topics may include interesting wreck dives I made on two different ships on the east coast of America, stories from the making of a few new films, the show 10 Things You Didn`t Know About, reportage from moderating panels with guests ranging from Pussy Riot, Naomi Klein and the West Memphis Three “etc”.
“The ‘etc’ is of great importance because trying to live as eventfully as possible at all times, quite a lot can hit the fan at a moment`s notice. Over the years, Henry has returned several times to update fans with stories of his unceasing adventures. - Staff Writer
