Come See The First Show at Highview Arts Center

ShakespearHAC

We have been working hard to finish construction and clean up the space so it is ready to open on September 9th for our very first show, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)!

Your first show is a bunch of Shakespeare? Sounds boring!

Some of you may be thinking "ugh not Shakespeare!" but this is not your high school English class version of Romeo and Juliet. In this hilarious show, three actors attempt to perform ALL of Shakespeare's plays in just 97 minutes! Lovers of Shakespeare will laugh as they recognize the pieces of their beloved plays spliced together, while audience members who aren’t as familiar with the Bard’s work will enjoy the witty banter and slapstick comedy. It is a fast-paced show that will have even the Shakespeare haters roaring with laughter. 

THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (ABRIDGED) was London’s longest-running comedy.
