For the sake of Jason, Medea has left her home and lives in exile. Jason abandons her and their two sons for a new life and a new bride. And now Medea must leave. She begs to stay just one more day. It is enough. She exacts revenge and destroys all that she loves. One of the greatest pieces of dramatic literature of all time in a thrilling new production.

Playwright and performer Keith Hamilton Cobb is always asked to play Othello. American Moor is his captivating mediation on veiled racism, and his own bias, towards Shakespeare's misunderstood Moor.


All performances are at the wild project (195 E. 3rd Street, between Avenues A & B). Tickets can be purchased from OvationTix on 212.352.3101 or online at www.thewildproject.com. The Box Office opens one hour prior to curtain.

The wild project is a theater, film, music, and visual arts venue that presents diverse, engaging, inspiring, and entertaining works to the vibrant and growing community of Alphabet City in New York's East Village, while bringing together the artists and the environment in a unique way. Founded in 2007, the wild project is an innovator among arts venues, providing an eco-friendly theater and gallery where the artists and space nurture each other. The company is dedicated to creating an environment that supports the artists, and to cultivating artists that support the environment. With an eco-conscious approach to presenting the dynamic works of hundreds of emerging artists each year, the wild project offers an artistic and environmental education for patrons of all ages, interests, and incomes in its community.
