The Hamazon’s present “Improvised Shakespeare,” a performance where comedy improv takes a theatrical romp in the style of The Bard.
Inspired by the works of Shakespeare, The Hamazons will deliver a full-length improvised play with Elizabethan flair. Filled with the language of poetic imagery and bawdy innuendo, the Hamazons will “take arms against a sea of trouble” and hope that “all’s well that ends well.” Lovers, fools, fairies, and “monarchs to behold the swelling stage” will find a new story filled with love, death, revenge, mystery and magic, as The Hamazons discover it for the first and only time with the help of audience suggestions.
“Improvised Shakespeare” will be in the style of long-form improvisation, which means The Hamazons will create one long story, in two acts, completely unscripted. The stories they act out have never been seen before and will never be seen again making each performance a unique experience. The Hamazons, also known as “The Warrior Princesses of Improv”, feature Cil Stengel, Eve Smyth and Kyndra Laughery.
The Hamazons will present an unscripted Shakespearean story on Friday and Saturday, Sept. 12th and 13th at 7:30pm and Sunday, Sept. 14th at 3:00pm at The Bellview Grange, 1050 Tollman Creek Rd in Ashland.
Tickets are $17 online at www.hamazons.com or $20 at the door – advance tickets are recommended.
