Witness the Magic of Unscripted Shakespeare! Step into the offbeat word of Love, Shakespeare, where seasoned Portland comedians attempt something audacious: performing a fully improvised Elizabethan play based on your suggestions!
Each show is an unpredictable tribute to Shakespeare's comedy, filled with ridiculous twists and spontaneous delights. Follow a merry band of players -former buddies of the great Will himself - as they unravel one of the Bard's "unfinished" gems. This special engagement welcomes the group back to the U.S. Bank Main Stage!
Love, Shakespeare is a lively celebration that's equal parts homage and hilarity- a comedic gem not to be missed!
LOVE, SHAKESPEARE
