The play, which has been described as a “comic tragedy,” reinvents Shakespeare’s Hamlet<\/em> by setting it at a backyard cookout where Juicy, a queer, Black Southern college kid grappling with questions of identity, is met by the ghost of his father who shows up demanding that Juicy avenge his murder, even as Juicy is trying to break the cycles of trauma and violence in service of his own liberation.<\/p>\n

Fat Ham<\/em> on Broadway is a Public Theater and National Black Theatre co-production.<\/p>\n

“I am beyond thrilled to be a co-producer on The National Black Theater and Public Theater transfer of James Ijames thrilling Fat Ham<\/em> directed by my dear friend and visionary director Saheem Ali,” Domingo said in a statement to Deadline. “This is the kind of theater that we need on Broadway – bold reimaginings of stories that fuel us all.”<\/p>\n

The Broadway transfer of Fat Ham <\/em>from the Off Broadway Public Theatre represents National Black Theatre’s first production on Broadway, and only the third play to be transferred by a Black theater in Broadway’s century-long history. The complete Off Broadway cast will make the move to Broadway.<\/p>\n

Domingo currently stars in Fear of the Walking Dead <\/em>and Euphoria,<\/em> and has completed filming of The Color Purple.<\/em> He is a 2011 Tony Award nominee for his performance in The Scottsboro Boys <\/em>musical.<\/p>\n

Fat Ham <\/em>will be produced by Rashad V. Chambers, No Guarantees and Public Theater Productions. Andy Jones and Dylan Pager will serve as Executive Producers.<\/p>\n
