Presented in association with Classical Theatre of Harlem

Irish Arts Center presents Cambria/Douglass – a four week run of Frederick Douglass Now, a one-man show written and performed by the prominent African-American actor Roger Guenveur Smith (Do the Right Thing, American Gangster), in rotating repertory with The Cambria, Irish writer/performer Donal O’Kelly’s groundbreaking play about Frederick Douglass’s historic trip to Ireland, where he was greeted as a hero by the Irish people.  The Cambria features Donal O’Kelly and Sorcha Fox, with lighting by Ronan Fingleton and direction by Raymond Keane.

About Classical Theatre of Harlem

Since its founding in 1999, the Classical Theatre of Harlem has presented nearly forty productions that have included works by Anton Chekhov, Samuel Beckett, Euripides, Jean Genet, Langston Hughes, Adrienne Kennedy, William Shakespeare, Melvin Van Peebles, Derek Walcott and August Wilson among many others.  The company combines non-traditional casting, original adaptations, music and dance in ways that render works from the classical canon as fresh, innovative, and essentially a new experience of world classics. It is CTH’s vision to create the next great American theatre company whose value to its community is inherent and essential, a company that is engaged in producing theatre that has the capacity to change lives and truly reflects the diversity of ideas and racial tapestry that is America. www.ClassicalTheatreOfHarlem.org
