The Ritz Teen Thespian Guild presents
Shakespeare in Shorts
and Other Classic Briefs
November 12 & 13, 2010 7:30 PM
November 14, 2009 2:00 PM

The Ritz Teen Thespian Guild, a group of young performers from area high schools, will present two charming one-act plays inspired by the Bard. The first is The Fifteen Minute Hamlet by celebrated playwright Tom Stoppard. He has taken the most recognizable and best-loved lines from Shakespeare's most famous play and condensed them into a thirteen-minute version. This miraculous feat is followed by a hectic and hilarious two-minute encore that retells the story yet again! Charles George's, When Shakespeare's Ladies Meet, has six of the most notable heroines in literature getting together to discuss that universal topic - Love. Imagine the fun when shrewish Kate, mad Ophelia, enchanting Cleopatra, wise Portia and victim Desdemona convene to offer Juliet advice on how best to conduct a romance with Romeo. The evening also will include F. Scott Fitzgerald's Bernice Bobs Her Hair, Bret Harte's The Outcast of Poker Flats and Labor Day by Sheri Wilner.
Adults $10, Students $5 - EV
