Shakespeare Interrupted
With a Significant Appearance from the Words of William Shakespeare
What if the plots of some of Shakespeare’s most popular plays were altered ever so slightly? What if they were changed rather drastically? What if characters were added to these iconic plays? Would it upset the Shakespearean scholars and perhaps even The Bard of Avon, Willy Shake, The Sweet Swan of the Elizabethan Pond? Perhaps. But it matters not! We shall proceed. Why can’t Juliet fall in love with an Uber Eats delivery person? Why can’t Caesar’s BFF throw a surprise party for Julius? Why can’t we have some fun with the words and scenes that too often make us yawn? Well, the answer is. . .we can!
