NYC's Red Bull Theater, which revitalizes undersung classics, presented an in-person reading of The Jew of Malta earlier this week and you can watch a recording through the weekend. Christopher Marlowe's 16th-century play is rarely revived due to its depiction of Barabas, a greedy, amoral Jewish merchant who makes Shylock look tame.

The cast includes Hand to God Tony nominee Steven Boyer.
