	Soul Notes is the musical result of scores of personal interviews conducted by the playwright in Jamaica, South Africa, and the American South. These interviews, most of them with black and white musicians, explore the big issues surrounding race in intimate and vulnerable ways. Backed by an 8-piece band, a talented cast of 20 from all corners of UNC's campus brings these interviews to life with the sounds of reggae, blues, rock, gospel and bluegrass.
