"Caliban by the Yellow Sands: A Community Masque of the Art of the Theatre" by Percy MacKaye is a play published in 1916 to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Shakespeare's death. Loosely based on "The Tempest," it centers on Caliban's desire for knowledge and art, presenting mankind's quest through symbolic characters and interposed Shakespearean scenes. MacKaye conceived this massive community spectacle to unite audiences intellectually and civically, featuring thousands of performers and drawing audiences of over 135,000 across productions in New York and Boston.
