From his iconiccollaborations with Spike Lee (Do the Right Thing, Malcolm X, Get on the Bus) to his ObieAward–winning solo shows (A Huey P. Newton Story), Roger has built a career bending form,fusing politics and performance, and refusing to fit in anyone’s box.Now he’s back on stage with In Honor of Jean-Michel Basquiat, his newest one-man showexploring his friendship with the extraordinary Basquiat. Running now at Outside In Theatrethrough November 9 and headed to the Under the Radar Festival in New York City in January2026, the piece continues Roger’s legacy of art as both testimony and transformation.In this episode, Roger sits with The Frogs to talk about brotherhood in art, the risks of tellinghistory through your own body, and what it means to carry the brilliance and burden of geniusonstage.This isn’t just a conversation, it’s an excavation, a production, a ritual, church, and a moment.Raw, poetic, and straight from the source.Credits:A production of Outside In Theatre in Highland Park, Los AngelesCreated by Alex Ubokudom & Tobie WindhamEdited by Brianna Seamster & Byron Rogers, Jr.Recorded & Mixed by Arlo SandersTheme Song by Arlo SandersProduced by Brianna Seamster & Jessica HannaExecutive Produced by The Frogs & Outside In TheatreRecorded at Outside In Theatre","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/DCp-Ws1gntUmmaPd8_gwtZKiLDXQSqX1csMyYYCj2Rw/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS82MjJk/YTBiMmU3YmVhMTQ0/MjExMGQzYWJjMzI1/MTc5Yi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
