Brave New World Repertory Company presents THE GREAT WHITE HOPE at Celebrate Brooklyn this Thursday night.  Their acclaimed production of TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD performed on the tree-lined streets of Ditmas Park before an overflow crowd of one thousand people last summer is the stuff of legend now. I would expect a big crowd for this show. When I was a kid, The Great White Hope played on Broadway with James Earl Jones. I’ve always wanted to see it.

Brave New World Repertory Theatre draws from Brooklyn’s rich artistic community to create dynamic and engaging theatre on the Brooklyn side of the bridge. Founded by a group of local theatre professionals, the company produces classical and neglected works, as well as new works by its members. Brave New World Repertory Theatre provides its actors, directors, designers, playwrights and stage managers the opportunity to work in and for their own community.
