If you ever wondered what the pandemic, social media, feminism, god, America, Hamlet, Richard III, Lady Macbeth and Shakespeare have in common, this is the show for you! If you’ve never wondered about any of that, this is still the show for you!
A one-non-binary show with a metaphysical sense of humour, a large amount of physical comedy and more than a dollop of meta-theatricality, inspired by comedy greats like Andy Kaufman, Jerry Seinfeld and Ricky Gervais. Add a soupcon of 70s nostalgia, and you won’t want to miss the Alex Floyd International Tour, now in LA - an immersive and innovative way to see Shakespeare's universe and explore the craziness of modern society in a very unexpected way...
And yes, it’s in English.
Starring Alex Floyd
Produced by Wild Orchid Company (Orchidée Sauvage)
Presented by the Santa Monica Playhouse International Cultural Exchange Series. Admission includes a post-show Q&A (in French and English) and wine reception with Alex.
