Appreciation blog for the Tony & Grammy award-winning actor, rapper, and lyricist. Formerly of Hamilton-fame; currently taking over the world with his brilliance.
All art is dangerous. Watch #VelvetBuzzsaw on #Netflix February 1, 2019.
Velvet Buzzsaw is a thriller set in the contemporary art world scene of Los Angeles where big money artists and mega-collectors pay a high price when art collides with commerce. Jake Gyllenhaal, Rene Russo, Toni Collette, Zawe Ashton, Tom Sturridge, Natalia Dyer, Daveed Diggs, Billy Magnussen, and John Malkovich star in the new mind-bending film written and directed by Dan Gilroy.
Tony winner Daveed Diggs is returning to the Public Theater, the venerable downtown New York stage institution where the actor first turned heads in the original cast of Hamilton.
Diggs will star with Sheria Irving, Zoe Winters and additional cast to be announced in the world premiere of Suzan-Lori Parks' White Noise. The play centers on a woke and worldly group of longtime friends and lovers shaken by a racially motivated incident with cops that causes Diggs' character Leo to turn to extreme measures for his self-preservation.
The Public's artistic director Oskar Eustis will stage the production, which begins performances March 5 with a free first preview, ahead of an official opening March 20. The limited engagement is scheduled to run through April 14.
