SEE: THE DUTCHMAN SCREENING AT HARLEM STAGE

Harlem Bespoke: Presented in collaboration with Maysles Documentary Center, Harlem Stage presents the film, Dutchman, by Amiri Baraka, which is based on his 1964 OBIE Award-winning one act play of the same name that originally premiered at The Cherry Lane Theater.

Friday,  November 11th, 7:30PM-9:00PM, The Dutchman screening at Harlem Stage, 150 Convent Avenue by 135th Street, Tickets $15-$25. Widely recognized as Baraka’s greatest work in any genre, Dutchman, in both its thematic emphasis and dramatic structure, combines avant-garde rituals of irony, emotional power, and social insight; a commentary on a clash between characters from divergent social and philosophical backgrounds, both commenting on the internal divisions of individuals in American society, and both culminating in acts of violence that are at once realistic and symbolic.
