(From Crowder College)Crowder College Theatre department will be hosting a free performance by TheatreSquared from Fayetteville, AR, Friday, September 26, starting at 9am in the Elsie Plaster Community Center on the Neosho campus.
Area high schools participating include: Cassville, East Newton, Pierce City, Webb City, and Wheaton.
“The event is an opportunity for local students to have access to quality theatre performed by professionals,” state Annie Smith, Crowder Theatre Director.
The day will consist of three actors and their stage manager who love Shakespeare’s plays. They have prepared a presentation that will introduce all of his major tragedies to the student body. This Shakespearian extravaganza will take around… 8 hours. But with only 45 minutes on the clock, the actors will need to make some cuts. What should they focus on? The plots to overthrow regency? The greatest fights of all time? Or the epic death scenes? Excited by the challenge, the actors piece together a show that covers this great playwright’s tragedies in the funniest and fastest way possible.
The Shakespeare Show will be performed by professional actors working with the Education Department at TheatreSquared.
