Body Politic Theatre
June 23 – July 19, 1987

“The three other works on the program all had urban themes. The best of the bunch was David Hernandez’s Roof Top Piper, a series of poetic riffs about life in Chicago, directed by Smith and performed with style by Henry Godinez, Johnny Lee Davenport, and Pat Bowie.”
—Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times (June 26, 1987)
“Roof Top Piper is a series of inner-city hymns from the poetry of David Hernandez, spoken in spotlights by Pat Bowie, Johnny Lee Davenport and Henry Godinez.”
