Ain’t Supposed to Die A Natural Death (Tunes from Blackness)
Time: 8pm - 11pm
CityParks Theater presented by Time Warner - Peopled by junkies, pimps, drag queens, sweatshops workers, crooked cops, prisoners, lovers, and dreamers, Melvin Van Peebles' Ain't Supposed To Die A Natural Death is a tradition shattering and trend setting work which reinvigorated artistic explorations of urban life through new forms, including spoken word and rap music. Ain't Supposed To Die A Natural Death was a huge hit on Broadway in its original inception running for 325 performances and garnering seven Tony nominations, including Best Musical. This production, interpreted vividly by The Classical Theatre of Harlem, remains raucous, irreverent, and as participatory as ever. **Ain’t Supposed to Die a Natural Death contains adult language and content intended for mature audiences**
