SHAKESPEARE REDUCTO
While it may seem like my friend Belle occupies a good amount of time in an ongoing bitch-fest at this site [see DOUBLE-TAKE ADVERTISING AND THE BEAUTY OF SUBTLE GRAF], telling me I'm an idiot jackass is just her hobby. In her real time, she's an actress. Currently she's in a production of The Tempest--for kids!
The show is presented by DramaTune in association with The West Side Community Garden and written by William Shakespeare. The hour-long production was adapted and directed by Morna Murphy Martell. Unsurprisingly, Belle plays the character of Miranda (she's basically the star), the daughter of magician Prospero, who shipwrecks a bunch of unlucky bastards on a deserted island. "A Mini-Tempest" is a kid-friendly production that is performed every Saturday and Sunday at 5pm through August 20th at the West Side Community Garden on West 89th St. between Columbus and Amsterdam Aves. It only lasts an hour and is free, if you have kids that get antsy.
For more information, call 212-245-7498 or 212-316-5490.
