Sunday, April 23 & 30 at 5 pm
Fais Do Do – 5253 W. Adams Blvd.
We are in an era where, for many of us, nothing feels darker than real life – so we are going to bathe this play about warped, twisted and corrupt leadership in a tub of satire and song.
Merchant of Venice

Sunday, April 23 & 30 at 1 pm
Fais Do Do – 5253 W. Adams Blvd.
Merchant of Venice is one of Shakespeare’s most controversial plays – we are not shying away from controversy this season!! Theater gives us space to grapple with the issues that we are hearing and absorbing in the “real world.”

Sunday, May 7 & 14 at 4 pm
Underground Theater – 1314 N. Wilton Place
For the last several months, a group of Players has been doing just that with Shakespeare’s most famous play, and the result is “The Hamlet Project.” In this presentation, you’ll join the original Rebel without a Cause, as he tries to make sense of a new step-father, a mother he barely recognizes, and a kingdom that has been turned upside down.
