STAGE TUBE: Sneak Peek at DCPA's THE BOOK OF WILL

By:



The Book of Will by Lauren Gunderson makes its World Premiere January 13 - February 26, 2017 at the at Denver Center for the Performing Arts' Ricketson Theatre. Check out a sneak peek below!

Developed at the 2016 Colorado New Play Summit

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'll just have to borrow, beg and band together to get it done. Lauren Gunderson weaves a hilarious and heartfelt story inspired by the true story of Shakespeare's First Folio.
