This performance is hosted by Poet/Vocalist Marvin Tate, as part of his series “Soul-Salad,” a musical offering of national and local acts, from free-jazz, blues, and classical to merengue, and performance art, occurring at Theatre Y on the last Friday of each month. Tate’s vision is to cross-pollinate the arts and make his old neighborhood a hotspot for locals and out of towners.
