York Add to the list of artistic productions prompted by the bicentennial of the Lewis and Clark expedition this one-man show about the largely forgotten black man who became one of the team's most important assets. York was both slave and protector to Clark, especially in the explorers' dicey interactions with the Native American tribes they encountered. Written by local theater veteran Brad Shaw and starring Lorenzo Hughes in the title role, the show traces York's life from boyhood on the Clark plantation to his eventually successful quest for freedom. Feb. 8-9, and Feb. 15-16 at the Gem Theater, 1615 E. 18th St., 816-474-0888.
