Fern Shakespeare is casting for the final two shows of our season: Bat-Hamlet by Jordan Pullium and An All-Female Identifying Much Ado About Nothing.
Bat-Hamlet:
Bat-Hamlet is a comedy that asks the question, what if Shakespeare had conceived the melancholy Dane as a costumed crime fighter? Bat-Hamlet tells the tale of a Dark Knight that emerges from betwixt the pages of Shakespeare to exact revenge on his murderous uncle, King Jester. Once resolved to avenge beloved King Police Commissioner Godrick's death, Hamlet dons the persona of Bat-Hamlet, a flashier and much cooler version of his brooding youth. Bat-Hamlet first premiered in Atlanta with The Essential Theater Festival in 2012. Written by Atlanta playwright Jordan Pullium this will be the west coast premier. Bat Hamlet runs June 8th - July 1st at The Slate Theater. Rehearsals begin May 13th.
Much Ado About Nothing:
This is the final show in Fern Shakespeare's Season of Pursuit. This is an all female identifying production. Femme/TF/Female-Presenting are all encouraged to audition. Directed by Jessica Fern Hunt, Much Ado runs October 19th - November 11th at The Slate Theater. Rehearsals will begin in September.
