Congrats to this massively talented team, and thank you to everyone who joined us LIVE for the 18th Annual Celebration of the birth of WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, who turned 457 just last Friday!

If you missed yesterday's performance, The Will-A-Thon will be available on our YouTube in its entirety for the next 96 hours!!!
Join us HERE: Bitly.com/willathon2021

We've been offering a festival in his honor every year around this time since 2004. Until last year, it's always been as Live Theater, but now due to this modern plague, as Will was accustomed to accommodate in his age such things,we've altered the venue to the ubiquitous ZOOM.
😊🎭
AND in doing so, this affords us the opportunity to reach audiences throughout the country, and indeed the entire GLOBE!

Will's Playshop is from where the seeds of inspiration spring forth to select, workshop, and bring this wonderful offering to life.

"Fred" by Donald Steele I'm proud to present.

It was originally a two-hander called, "Uncle Bill" from his larger work, "Dearly Beloved", that we did several readings in NYC, among them at The Workshop Theater, over the past few years.

He now has adapted it into a monologue especially for me, for which I am grateful to him and hopeful that you welcome it into your hearts and minds.
