The Apollo Presents… A New Harlem Renaissance: Short Plays from The New Black Fest

How did the artists of the Harlem Renaissance respond to the historic events that shaped their time? And how are contemporary creatives dealing with the issues of the present moment in their own work? These questions lie at the heart of the Apollo commission of the New Black Fest, which has engaged playwrights to explore these themes in 10-minute plays.
