I really want to see this. Avery Brooks is a great actor.
By the way, has he ever played Othello? He would be perfect for that role. He would just have to play Benjamin Sisko for the most part, the happier upbeat sisko near the beginning, and toward the end of the play he would play it more like Sisko in the episode "In the pale moonlight".
@tf2whackyengineer Nevermind, I just checked wikipedia. He has not only been Othello, he has also been Sophocles's Oedipus. Neither were recorded as far as I know. I so wish I could see both roles.
I designed Lighting and Sound for this production and i must say that it was was pleasure both watching and working with Justin and Avery in this project.
Cllamont, you got that right! This man should be a household name like Sir Laurence Oliver was and Denzel Washington is! Show business stinks and is very unfair!
Cllamont... I agree with you 100%... Avery Brooks is a very thorough actor. He did not get his just due respect.
I do not like to say this... but, If he was a caucasian like William Shatner and Patrick Stewart, they would have most likely done spin-off films for Deep Space 9!

I would pay to see him in that play.

@Djeyyel
sadly, I mean at the end of ds9 they could have made a great come back movie with him and Gul Dukat.

Would really like to see him on stage myself once... (but I guess he does not come to play anywhere in Europe)

Brooks is the most underrated actor alive. He should be larger than Denzel.
