LOVE & MISDIRECTION

BY W. SHAKESPEARE
ADAPTATION BY LAUREN GO 

“The course of true love never did run smooth.”

​

This fall, we bring three of Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies to life as fast-paced, intimate re-imaginings for the stage. Each piece will be directed by a different artist and performed by the same ensemble cast, transforming across three distinct worlds of love, disguise, wit, and delightful chaos.

​

Three Shakespeare comedies. Three directors. One fearless ensemble.
