About Spunk
Spunk is a wild, bluesy wail - three stories by the great Harlem Renaissance writer Zora Neale Hurston, adapted into a staggeringly theatrical play by George C. Wolfe, who won an Obie for its 1989 off-Broadway premiere production. A trio of vignettes of African-American life in the first half of the 20th century, Spunk is a raucous, charming, blue-infused look at love, revenge, jealousy, and the fine art of the hustle.
