1849 Shakespeare Riots In Partnership with Mill Race
In 1849, the Bowery Boys, armed with cobblestones, rioted against the aristocrats of Astor Place Opera House over a grudge between their favorite Shakespearean actors, leading to the militia firing on the crowd. The smoke finally settled after thirty-six hours of destruction, injury, and death. Theater historian Kevin Peshick examines what led to the Shakespeare Riots, and the consequences that still reverberate today.
Part of the Lecture Series to be held at the Mill Race Historical Village's Old School Church
