Shakespeare in Love<\/h2>\n

February 1st to 9th, 2019
\nBased on the screenplay by Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard and adapted for the stage by Lee Hall,
\nwith music by Paddy Cunneen
\nDirected by Iam Coulter*<\/p>\n

This charming evocation of another time and place takes us back to Elizabethan England, to witness the early career of one William Shakespeare.\u00a0 Our beloved bard is in a slump when we meet him, experiencing a stubborn case of writer\u2019s block while producers demand pages.\u00a0 He forces himself to the work, holding auditions for a play not yet written \u2013 and then he meets Viola de Lesseps, disguised as male actor Thomas Kent, and their world is turned upside down.\u00a0 Where there were no words, now the words flow with ease on the wings of love.\u00a0 Romeo and Juliet is written before us, as our star-crossed lovers face the cruel realities of the world.\u00a0 Can Shakespeare survives the drama of being hunted by an angry fiance? Can he ever hope to please his impatient producers? Can Will and Viola bring true love to the stage before she is forced into marriage with another man? Adapted from the Oscar winning movie by Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard, Shakespeare in Love will delight and inspire as only the poetry and art of Shakespeare can.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
