(Un) Shakespearean Nightmares
Just Add Salt

This show is a remix featuring Shakespeare’s underdogs.
Have you ever snapped and realized something needs to change? That’s exactly how some of Shakespeare’s characters feel after living—and reliving—the same stories for centuries.
Shakespeare is long dead, and now it’s time for a glow-up. These so-called “minor” characters are taking matters into their own hands. So join a cast of underrated, and eccentric Shakespearean misfits as they push boundaries in pursuit of an original story. And who knows—perhaps creator/father/dictator William Shakespeare himself will rise from purgatory to grant one worthy character their wish for something new.
This show is all about breaking rules, causing havoc, and philosophy (what??)—and it’s a real barrel of laughs from start to finish. Are characters always bound to their writer, or can they escape their fates? Come on in, and find out!
