Shakespeare Theatre's SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES Brings a Chilling Classic To Life!
The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey will present the seventh annual Something Wicked This Way Comes - a popular one-night-only event - on Monday, October 24 at 7:30 p.m. The performance kicks off Halloween week and will be held at the F.M. Kirby Shakespeare Theatre, 36 Madison Avenue in Madison. Tickets are $35 and can be purchased online at www.ShakespeareNJ.org or by phone by calling the Box Office at 973-408-5600.
Titled from a line in Shakespeare's Macbeth, Something Wicked This Way Comesis a delightfully bone-chilling evening, featuring esteemed actors from The Shakespeare Theatre Company as well as guest artists.
This season's event, directed by Brian B. Crowe, offers a staged reading ofFrankenstein by Victor Gialanella, based on the classic horror novel by Mary Shelley. The evening will still feature the haunting music of the theremin, played by our annualmusical guest, John Hoge. Company members Clark Scott Carmichael and Jeffrey M. Bender of this summer's Coriolanus and The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) (revised) respectively, return for this one-night event; Mr. Carmichael will play Victor Frankenstein and Mr. Bender will play The Creature.
In December, The Shakespeare Theatre will also host Something Merry This Way Comes. This annual holiday gift to our patrons will be a very special one this year with a staged reading of the radio play version of It's a Wonderful Life. Something Merry is appropriate for all ages, and provides a refreshing antidote to the commercial glitz and blitz that invades our lives each year at holiday time.
