HOODOO LOVE

The Complex
( 02/04/2012 - 02/26/2012 )
Running Time: 2 hours

Hoodoo Love takes a captivating look into the life and love of a young African American woman pursuing her dream to be a blues singer. Hoodoo Love is a raw and unapologetic exploration of such taboo issues as folk magic, incest and betrayal. In the midst of all its dark foreboding elements Hoodoo Love manages to spins a hopeful tale of perseverance and commitment to ones dreams. Through the story told here we are introduced to a host of compelling characters - Toulou a young woman who runs away to Memphis the blues capital in an effort to escape her abusive past and make her dreams to find love and success come through. Ace of Spades a blues guitarist and singer in search of his hit song. Jib Toulou's brother, a man with a dark soul, and a dark secret. His presence threatens all that is good in Toulou's world. Candy Lady the local hoodoo madam, having lost all her men and her children tries to provide Toulou with guidance to keep her from ending up like her.
