Having tackled Marlowe, Yeats, de la Barca and Bungeroth's own original verse drama, the company dives into the Bard's material for the first time, bringing together directors and actors from Mortal Folly Theatre, the Bent Quill Players, NYU, Pace and other institutions to mount their own imaginings of a theme Shakespeare did best: ultimate ruin. It's the moment that Hamlet chooses madness and revenge over suicide; the moment that King Richard gives up his crown; the moment that Katherine gets corralled. They all add up to spell destruction for the characters and cathartic delight for the audience.

A wine and cheese reception will follow the performance; tickets include admission and one free drink.

Wanna see me in a kick-butt scene for free?  This Wednesday: 12:15-2:15 is our open-class at the Deena Levy Theater Studio, where anyone can come enjoy the fruits of our last three months of work.  I am very proud of my class- so if you have mid-day availability, come on down and support us with your presence!
