Description

Get thee to a…Nursery? In this absurdist comedy, a band of four-year-old rascals are cursed by the spirit of Shakespeare for shredding his beloved folio. Formerly inarticulate and screen addicted, the feral children awaken to find themselves fluent in the Bard’s language and conceiving character thoughts not their own. As the nursery politics magically weave through various Shakespearean subplots, the children bicker, fight and laugh through the Bard’s world and words. An original play, this new work will debut at the Edinburgh Festival, performed by young adults channeling their inner infant.

This was one of the first shows I saw on the first weekend at the Fringe and boy was it fun! A fantastically silly take on Shakespeare that had me chuckling throughout. A great concept and a fabulous group of young performers who should be very proud of themselves.
