The Book of Will

by Lauren Gunderson

Directed by Christine Mani

Where there’s a Will, there’s a way.

The Book of Will brings to life the chaotic, hilarious, passionate, and *mostly* true endeavor to compile Shakespeare’s plays into the legendary First Folio!

Without William Shakespeare, we wouldn’t have literary masterpieces like Romeo and Juliet. But without Henry Condell and John Heminges, we would have lost half of Shakespeare’s plays forever! After the death of their friend and mentor, the two actors are determined to compile the First Folio and preserve the words that shaped their lives. They just have to borrow, beg, and band together to get it done. Amidst the noise and color of Elizabethan London, The Book of Will finds an unforgettable true story of love, loss, and laughter, and sheds new light on a man you may think you know.

Something Rotten!

Directed by Christine Mani

Brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of a certain Renaissance rock star known as "The Bard.” When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing, and acting all at the same time, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self, and all that jazz.

Welcome to the Renaissance and the outrageous, crowd-pleasing musical farce, Something Rotten!.  Created by Grammy Award-winning songwriter Wayne Kirkpatrick, and successful screenwriters Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Farrell, Something Rotten was lauded by audience members and critics alike, receiving several Best Musical nominations and hailed by Time Out New York as "the funniest musical comedy in at least 400 years.”
