Shakespeare meets Reality TV! New Hampshire Theatre Project's 2012-13 Season comes to a close with Shakespeare's quirky comedy Two Gentlemen of Verona - with a twist!! A lesser-known work by the Bard, this classic is full of vapid, self-obsessed young people without any discernible occupation or ambition other than relationships, money, and leisure... Sound familiar? Think 'The Real Housewives of Verona,' 'Verona Shore' or '37121' (that's one of Verona's zip codes...). NHTP's Youth Repertory Company of 13-18 year olds weave together Shakespeare's original words, a few new scenes written by the Repertory Company, and video media produced with PPMtv.
