Description
A witty and fiercely anti-colonialist revision of Shakespeare s island fling, Csaire turns it into a brilliant assertion of black identity. Prospero is an exiled tyrant, while Caliban becomes a mutinous figure who has clear affinities with Malcolm X. Csaire, major poet, Martinique politician, and coiner of the term negritude has presented not simply a new reading of The Tempest but an original play of astonishing power. This translation was first performed at the Gate Theatre in 1998.
