Yesterday I went to a musical written by Ruth Rhodes,
a CR English professor. It was called “This Is Crescent City” and it was
thought provoking and to the point. In obviously untrained voices, the players
told some of the darker stories in our history: the treatment of native people,
the expulsion of the Chinese, the impact of Pelican Bay Prison, the relocation
of the Hmong people after the CIA war, and the underemployment issues. It's well done.
