Matthue Roth (as seen on HBO’s Def Poetry Slam)
Juggling adrenaline and humor like a kid playing with a loaded gun, Matthue riffs on his experience as an Orthodox Jew, mixing in meditations on sexuality, gender roles, and the conflict between vegetarianism and his grandmother’s cooking. Matthue throws hip-hop, slam poetry, and storytelling together in an on-stage riot that’s reverent and irreverent at the same time (contains explicit material).
