One-Act: Romeo and Juliet: Six Very Busy Days
(Teen Cast, 13-18)
By local playwright Rob Wing
Everyone knows the story of Romeo and Juliet, but few realize that the "greatest love story of all time" takes place only over six days. That's right, Romeo and Juliet fall in love, marry and die all with within six days of meeting each other! Romeo and Juliet: Six Very Busy Days riotously re-imagines the misadvertur'd piteous overthrows of the iconic star-cross'd lovers. Farcically irreverent yet surprisingly faithful to Shakespeare's language and storyline, Romeo and Juliet: Six Very Busy Days blurs the line between slapstick and educational drama the same way Romeo and Juliet blurs the line between comedy and tragedy.
One-Act: Much Ado About Will
(Adult Cast, 18+)
​
By Robert Johansen
This charming entertainment demonstrates the amazing versatility of the greatest playwright in the English language. "Neither age can whither him nor custom stale his infinite variety." The show is bookended by the hysterical antics of the rustics from A Midsummer Night's Dream, with a delightful journey through mistaken identity, murder, love and war in between. The company of actors presents a dazzling display of comedy and pathos with some of Shakespeare's most famous characters.
