"The Curate Shakespeare: As You Like It"
By Don Nigro
September 29-October 1 & October 6-8 at 8:00 p.m.
Directed by Jacob HarrelsonWhen Don Nigro was asked by a professional theatre company to adapt "As You Like It" so that it could be performed by a company of seven, he devised a completely original play about a rag tag group of players led by a dotty old curate who must present Shakespeare's play. The dramatic interest and the comedy derive from their hilarious efforts to impersonate all of Shakespeare's characters. Subtitled "The record of one company's attempt to perform the play by William Shakespeare," Nigro’s play has become an underground comic classic!
