Brooklyn’s Brave New World Repertory Theatre is bringing the
Bard to the Boardwalk in September with two open air performances of
"The Tempest" by William Shakespeare to be staged on the Coney Island
beachfront. Here are details:
 

The
production will feature over a dozen of the professional actors who
make up Brave New World Repertory Company—as well as 30 8th grade dance
students from Mark Twain Intermediate School for the Gifted and
Talented, located in Coney Island. 
 
Based in Brooklyn, Brave
New World Repertory began its path of bold, critically acclaimed
site-specific productions in 2005 with its cutting edge production
of To Kill a Mockingbird, staged on the Victorian front porches of a
tree-lined Ditmas Park street.  Since then, they have staged Fahrenheit
451, The Great White Hope and Crossing Brooklyn Ferry, based on Walt
Whitman’s Leaves of Grass all for Celebrate Brooklyn at the Prospect
Park band shell, and most recently On The Waterfrontby Budd Schulberg,
on the Waterfront Museum Barge in Red Hook, and on tour to Pier 84 in
Manhattan and Hoboken.  Learn more about Brave New World at: http://www.bravenewworldrep.org
