What We Do
In Elizabethan London a small group of actors are in rehearsal. They are joined by a new playwright, Will Shakespeare, who is trying to write the perfect tragedy. The problem is that audiences keep on laughing at his scenes.
Join the players as they run through the first drafts of Shakespeare’s most famous plays and let your laughter tell the Bard what he needs to change.
