Extractions: Derek Walcott was born in 1930 in the town of Castries in Saint Lucia, one of the Windward Islands in the Lesser Antilles. The experience of growing up on the isolated volcanic island, an ex-British colony, has had a strong influence on Walcott's life and work. Both his grandmothers were said to have been the descendants of slaves. His father, a Bohemian watercolourist, died when Derek and his twin brother, Roderick, were only a few years old. His mother ran the town's Methodist school. After studying at St. Mary's College in his native island and at the University of the West Indies in Jamaica , Walcott moved in 1953 to Trinidad, where he has worked as theatre and art critic. At the age of 18, he made his debut with 25 Poems , but his breakthrough came with the collection of poems, In a Green Night (1962). In 1959, he founded the Trinidad Theatre Workshop which produced many of his early plays. Walcott has been an assiduous traveller to other countries but has always, not least in his efforts to create an indigenous drama, felt himself deeply-rooted in Caribbean society with its cultural fusion of African, Asiatic and European elements. For many years, he has divided his time between Trinidad, where he has his home as a writer, and

The Capeman - A Musical By Paul Simon And Derek Walcott
Synopsis and brief history of the Broadway musical by Paul Simon and derek walcott, plus links to cast albums and sheet music.
http://www.imagi-nation.com/moonstruck/albm85.html

Extractions: The Capeman Music: Paul Simon Book: Derek Walcott The Capeman , originally conceived by Paul Simon as a musical in 1989 when he was working on the Rhythm of the Saints album, tells the story of Salvador Agron, one of New York City's most notorious killers. In August of 1959, sixteen-year-old Agron, a member of a street gang known as The Vampires, murdered two teenagers on a New York playground. He became known as the "Capeman" because he wore a long, vampire-like black cape with a red lining while committing the murders. The musical begins with Agron's childhood in Puerto Rico, then follows his family's subsequent move to New York City and explores the boy's unhappy home life, including frequent encounters with his stepfather. Although he is originally more interested in girls than gangs, Agron joins The Vampires after they come to his rescue when he is attacked by another gang. Later, when a friend is badly beaten, The Vampires go out looking for revenge, and although they never locate the rival gang that did the beating, Salvador ends up stabbing two innocent boys to death. Soon captured and sentenced to death, Salvador claims to be unrepentant. The Capeman opened on January 29, 1998, with a cast that featured Marc Anthony (young Agron) and Ruben Blades (older Agron) and a libretto written by Nobel laureate Derek Walcott. However, audiences had to make their way through picket lines because certain members of the community were upset that Simon had chosen Agron for the subject of his play. They felt that the musical was glorifying the life of a murderer, and they were determined to make their opinion felt. In addition, the play was attacked by the critics, especially the New York Times which seemed to launch a campaign against the play. Perhaps hitting the nail on the head, one critic from New York magazine wrote:
