Based on one audience suggestion (a title for a play that has yet to be written) The Improvised Shakespeare Co. creates a fully improvised play in Elizabethan style. Each of the players has brushed up on his “thee’s” and “thou’s” to bring you an evening of off-the-cuff comedy using the language and themes of William Shakespeare. Any hour could be filled with power struggles, star-crossed lovers, sprites, kings, queens, princesses, sword-play, rhyming couplets, asides, insults, persons in disguise and all that we’ve come to expect from the pen of the Great Bard. The night could reveal a tragedy, comedy, or history. Nothing is planned-out, rehearsed, or written. Each play is completely improvised, so each play is entirely new! “staggeringly brilliant” -Time Out Chicago Critic’s Pick! -Chicago Public Radio “…the show channels Monty Python as often as the Bard, and frequently with sly-witted results.” -The Chicago Tribune Featuring: Joey Bland Ross Bryant Andy Carey Greg Hess Thomas Middleditch Blaine Swen Steve Waltien ***UCBT STUDENT IDs WILL NOT BE HONORED FOR THIS SHOW*** This Show Will Be Performed At: FIT - Seventh Avenue @ 27th Street
