Highly Recommended!
This is both good Shakespeare and very good theater. Normally, I like my fourth wall firmly in place, and nothing terrifies me more than being singled out – either by being pulled on stage, or even just sidled up to and conversed with – and inadvertently becoming part of the show. Here, though, I didn’t mind. We all had our turn. It was good-natured fun, and felt very safe. No easy trick. I can see why this would be an ideal company to bring Shakespeare into schools. They know how to make the audience part of the play they are watching, and thus more actively and deeply invest them in the understanding of and outcome of the story. Highly recommended.
