IN RESIDENCE: October 21-28 2014
Hailed by Laura Jacobs at Vanity Fair as “a hilarious, order cerebral force-field of a one-woman show,” Jay Z&Me just returned from the legendary Edinburgh Fringe Festival and a sold-out run at The Merchant House in Amsterdam, Holland. Called out for its “mesmerizing mastery of Hov’s verses’ by The List/UK, Cullerton’s journey from stretcher to spotlight also encompasses a life-time of far flung travels and work as an advertising exec, journalist, and published author.
When asked, why this obsession with Jay Z? Cullerton replies, “I believe in the power of language. I have to. I’m a writer. And it’s words not guns or drugs or basketball that got Jay Z out of the ghetto. This is a man whose empire is based and built on words and the charisma of his own experience. How astonishing is that?”
