Events Description

 

One night only, never to be seen before or again, a new play as Shakespeare would have intended had he lived for another 400 years. Princes and kings, queens and jesters, grave diggers and long lost twins—join this talented cast who have been speaking in iambic pentameter for at least a fortnight as they discover in the moment if they’re in a tragedy or a romance.

Whether you’re a Shakespeare scholar hoping to nitpick the particulars, a retired high school drama kid, an English major wanting to relive the glory days, or a Shakespeare novice with only a love of puns to keep you solace, this show is for you. Watch an entirely new Shakespearean-styled work every night that definitely won’t have the bard himself spinning in his grave.

Starring: Ann Galbraith, Andy Stefanato, Brian Gashgarian, Carol Sweet, Devin Kotani, Geneviève Dale, Kat Arifin, Mel Howe, Michael Harvey

Directors: Owen Chan, Jason Lewis
