11-23 Actors

Shakespeare in Shorts is just what it sounds like: a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud, and delightfully irreverent dive into the world of William Shakespeare, crafted for young performers and their unsuspecting audience members (AKA the parents).

Guided by a chorus of witty narrators (wearing shorts, obviously), the cast bounces between iconic scenes - you got your star-crossed love of Romeo and Juliet, your existential musings of Hamlet, and just a whisper of The Tempest as a li'l bonus treat. Outside of the scenes, the fourth wall is knocked squarely over, to make sure the audience gets all the juicy details of that spicy Tudor family drama, the actual timelessness of these themes, and plenty of theatrical mischief.
