the tempest in harlem

Shakespeares The Tempest

This preview of The Tempest is a theatrical “gumbo”, with an intricate blend of usurping villains, youthful romance, music, magic, humor, and conspiracy.  In this play created by The Classical Theatre of Harlem, Shakespeare gives us such iconic characters as Ariel, Caliban, and our protagonist Prospero, whose quest for justice leads him to become unjust himself.
