Delaware Shakespeare Community Tour | The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) [revised] [again]

In-person

 

The Lewes Public Library Spoken Word Society welcomes Delaware Shakespeare for their Community Tour production of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) [revised] [again]. This uproarious comedy written by Adam Long, Daniel Singer, Jess Winfield  takes audiences through all 36 of Shakespeare's plays in under 100 minutes. The event will include a 15-minute intermission. 

Delaware Shakespeare launched its Community Tour in Fall 2016. The productions travel throughout the state bringing thrilling, professional Shakespeare to audiences who may not have easy access to professional arts experiences. Community Tour productions play in non-theatrical settings and the production values are scaled for those spaces, with live music, minimal sets, and whatever lighting is available. The productions are performed with a cast of six actors and a musician.

Celebrating its twenty-fourth season, Delaware Shakespeare creates year-round professional theatre and educational programs for residents and friends of the State of Delaware. At Del Shakes, people from all walks of life celebrate and explore their shared humanity through the lens of Shakespearean work.

Each individual attending must register.

The performance runs two hours with a 15-minute intermission.


This program is brought to you by the library's Spoken Word Society, which celebrates the tradition and artistry of oral storytelling through lectures, performances, discussions, demonstrations, and other publicly-shared experiences. The LSWS is partially funded by the generous support of Browseabout Books and the Delaware Division of the Arts, a state agency. The Division promotes Delaware arts events on DelawareScene.com.
