The one-night-only event will take place on April 15 at Sheen Center Shiner Theatre.
The first presentation of Red Bull Theater’s 20th Anniversary Festival will be How Shakespeare Saved My Life, an epic poem told by Jacob Ming-Trent (Father Comes Home from the Wars, Parts 1, 2, and 3) with verse rhyme and song. Ming-Trent tells the story of how Shakespeare raised him, saved him, and ultimately showed him that forgiveness and mercy could set him free. The one-night-only will take place on Monday, April 15, at Sheen Center Shiner Theatre.
How Shakespeare Saved My Life has music by Ming-Trent and Ray Leslee and is directed by Karen Ann Daniels. Along with Ming-Trent, the show also features Greg Rucci on the drums, Jason Wilson on bass, and Jae Anthonee on keys.
Tickets for this performance are sold out, but there is currently a waitlist.
