NAKED SHAKES - THE ACTOR AND THE WORD

Now in its ninth season, NAKED SHAKES presents energetic, exciting, raw, vibrant Shakespeare highlighting the power of the actors and the language. NAKED SHAKES creator Irwin Appel believes that actors, drawing upon the power of Shakespeare’s words and the lively imagination of their audience, have a remarkable ability to transform a simple space into a thrilling theatrical experience.  A Midsummer Night’s Dream may be Shakespeare’s most fantastical, imaginative play:  a whimsical, adventurous and sometimes dark tale of the crazy magic of love.  Come see NAKED SHAKES turn an intimate setting into wild spectacle, complete with aerial action and a dynamic cast of nineteen talented actors!
