"The Warriors," both a novel as well as a late 1970’s movie, is now a concept album from the creative minds of Lin-Manuel Miranda and Eisa Davis, both of whom have too many credits to name. Eisa Davis, a Pulitzer Prize finalist for her play Bulrusher, is also well known for the play Angela’s Mixtape which, in part, explores her relationship with her aunt, political activist Angela Davis. Lin-Manuel Miranda is, of course, known for his groundbreaking work in theater and beyond. His musical Hamilton remains a cultural phenomenon. Eisa and Lin-Manuel both join us on The Excerpt to discuss their newest project, "Warriors," released on October 18, 2024.
