Last Tiger in Haiti

November 8, 2016 - November 13, 2016

There once lived five kids in modern-day Haiti, all entangled in a dark history of servitude. Huddled in a tent on Mister’s land, they’d spin spellbinding folktales, vying for the title of best storyteller—and dreaming of their freedom. When two of them reunite 15 years later, the boundary between reality and fiction vanishes, revealing secrets of their past more haunting than any of the tales they told. In The Last Tiger in Haiti, Jeff Augustin weaves a remarkable and gripping narrative of survival, betrayal, and the power of a story.

Support relief efforts in Haiti

To support Hurricane Matthew relief efforts in Haiti, Berkeley Rep will be collecting cash donations after each performance of The Last Tiger in Haiti. The proceeds will be divided equally between Restavek Freedomand The Lambi Fund of Haiti—we also invite you to visit these organizations’ websites to learn more about them and contribute to their causes.

The Last Tiger in Haiti was developed in The Ground Floor: Berkeley Rep’s Center for the Creation and Development of New Work.
