Presented at the beginning of May, the spring production is a straight play, varying by genre and style year by year. Students will be introduced to modern and classic playwrights and will focus on developing skills in vocal, physical, and emotional acting techniques
The 2027 Spring Straight Play Production:
The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) [revised] [again]
by Adam Long, Daniel Singer, Jess Winfield
About the Play:
Three actors attempt to perform all 37 of Shakespeare's plays in 97 minutes, using slapstick, audience participation, and pop-culture references. Written in mondern text with excerpts from Shakespeare's plays, this piece is an irreverent rollercoaster ride through the Bard’s greatest hits. The ensemble cast weaves their way through all of Shakespeare’s comedies, histories, and tragedies in one hilarious script.
