Shakespeare has always held a special fascination for me. Even in high school, when everyone else dreaded reading Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet, I relished in it. There was something so rich and enduring about the words, the stories, and the people.
But I have seen Shakespeare done badly, in a way that completely justifies the intense hatred so many people have of The Bard and his works. Which is why, when you find a company that does Shakespeare right, you do everything you can to make sure they keep at it!
I have spent the last two months in the presence of such people, and tonight we open our production of Two Gents: A Coming of Age Tale in Iambic Pentameter (aka Two Gentlemen of Verona.) It is full of people with such talent that I consider it an honor to be one of them. But it needs your help.
Live theatre has many setbacks, and just one of them is finding the right venue. And, in our case, funding said venue. I understand that times are tight, for everyone, so if you can't donate PLEASE, share our page. And maybe those who are in a position to help will find it in their hearts to help make this company's dreams a reality.
Every dollar helps, and every single donation is appreciated a thousand times over.
