Tickets are free (two per person) and may be picked up only on the day of the performance after 1pm at the Delacorte Theater.

In 1998, Paul Simon and Nobel Prize laureate Derek Walcott teamed up to create a controversial Broadway musical about Salvador Agrón, who killed two other teenagers in an infamous 1959 gang fight. The show was a flop, but now the Public Theater gives it another chance in a concert staging directed by Diane Paulus (Hair). Ivan Hernandez plays the title role in a cast that includes five veterans of the original production.
