"Speak the speech I pray you...trippingly on the tongue."
When Shakespeare wrote those words for Hamlet, he wasn't thinking about hip-hop. But he could have been. The Bard of Avon would have been right at home in the hip-hop world with its passionate poetry and fervent rhythms that cut to the heart of the human condition.
Now, the companies that brought you Eleven Rooms of Proust - About Face Theatre and Lookingglass Theatre Company - reunite to present this explosive new hip-hop musical. Matt Sax blazes across the stage in an unforgettable breakout performance as Clifford, a kid with a rocky past who finds his redemption - and his fate - in the driving rhythm and raw power of hip-hop poetry.
Clay is a revelation that transcends generations and genres. You will e seduced by the power, the grace, and the awe-inspiring talent of Matt Sax in Clay.
