Join acclaimed company ACS Random
for the highlight of their 10th anniversary season, as they present their biggest and most ambitious play to date. For 400 years a secret war has been waged between heroes and villains created by William Shakespeare. The heroes seem to have the upper hand, as all the villains are held in a specially built maximum security prison called The Globe, behind a magical barrier fashioned by Shakespeare himself. However there are rumours of a traitor in the RSC, the government agency responsible for his characters. Meanwhile, a travel agent from Stratford is about to have a birthday to remember as he discovers he’s our only hope should the villains escape. The Shakespeare Conspiracy is a most lamentable epic comic romantic tragic comedy for everyone who loves the Bard, and everyone who doesn’t. Forget Batman, Spiderman or even The Avengers – this is the superhero event everyone’s going to be talking about. DISCLAIMER: The Shakespeare Conspiracy is a work of fiction, and is not to be taken seriously, especially if you are or ever have been an employee of the RSC, MI6... or S.H.I.E.L.D.
