Video: Watch the Trailer for Jeremy O. Harris-Produced Documentary AMERICAN THEATER

You can now get a first look at the trailer for American Theater, the ​Jeremy O. Harris-produced documentary about MAGA director Brian Clowdus plotting his comeback with a group of conservative actors.

In the film, Directed by Nicholas Clark and Dylan Frederick, Clowdus summons a troupe of conservative actors to an abandoned cabin in rural Georgia to plot revenge on the Atlanta theater community with a musical retelling of the 1692 Salem witch trials. 

As previously reported, several artists accused Clowdus of incorporating racist language into scripts where it was not called for, centering stories around the ‘experiences of the white women characters instead of the Black characters as written’, culturally insensitive costumes, and questionable conduct towards staff, amongst other issues.
