Shakespeare Unplugged


March and April, 2008


An innovative exploration of Shakespeare's works in a staged reading format. Co-produced with Shakespeare Dallas.

March 28 & 29, 2008, 8:00 p.m.
Measure for Measure
By William Shakespeare
A Staged Reading directed by Diana King

"Is this her fault or mine?
The tempter or the tempted, who sins most?"

One of Shakespeare's most interesting plays, Measure for Measure is both a comedy and a tragedy. Experience a unique opportunity to explore the sensational world that Shakespeare has created to examine morality and the abuse of power.


April 11 & 12, 2008, 8:00 p.m.
The Rivals
By Richard Brinsley Sheridan
A Staged Reading directed by Christopher McMurtry

"If I reprehend anything in this world, it is the use of my oracular tongue, and a nice derangement of epitaphs!"

For the first time ever, Shakespeare Dallas explores Shakespeare's influence on the classical playwrights that followed him. The Rivals is a raucous restoration comedy complete with mistaken identities and hilarious malapropisms to show the ridiculous lengths people will go to in pursuit of a lover.
