New York Riots: Astor Place

One of the biggest riots New York history was started because of a Shakespeare play!

We’re in Astor Place NYC to learn about the 1849 riots that were ignited due to two rival actors playing Macbeth on the same night.

Join us as we learn about The Curse of the Scottish Play, the fight for American working-class values, and the gangs who roamed the streets.
