Breakdancing Shakespeare: Antony and Cleopatra

Aug 4-Aug 4

By William Shakespeare
Adapted and Directed by Nina Pinchin

Two Free Performances *

Monday August 4, at 6:00 and 8:30 p.m.

Classic Shakespeare is infused with contemporary breakdancing and hip-hop in this story of two leaders' forbidden love and the clash between their worlds.

Hartford Stage and the Greater Hartford Arts Council's Neighborhood Studios celebrate their third annual partnership with this exhilarating production! This summer, 19 Greater Hartford area students became immersed in techniques of breakdancing, physical and vocal characterization, movement, color guard, and interpretation of classical text to create this modern adaptation of Antony and Cleopatra.

* Tickets must be picked up at the box office in person starting August 1 at 10:00 a.m. Limit 4 tickets per person.
