About this listen
Andrea Hairston's Redwood and Wildfire features blues singers, filmmakers, haints, healers, romance, and magic from Georgia to Chicago!
At the turn of the 20th century, minstrel shows transform into vaudeville, which slides into moving pictures. Hunkering together in dark theatres, diverse audiences marvel at flickering images. This "dreaming in public" becomes common culture and part of what transforms immigrants and "native" born into Americans.
Redwood, an African American woman, and Aidan, a Seminole Irish man, journey from Georgia to Chicago, from haunted swampland to a "city of the future". They are gifted performers and hoodoo conjurors, struggling to call up the wondrous world they imagine, not just on stage and screen but on city streets, in front parlors, in wounded hearts. The power of hoodoo is the power of the community that believes in its capacities to heal and determine the course of today and tomorrow.
