THE PLAY

Based on the screenplay by Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard; adapted for the stage by Lee Hall. Directed by Amy Herzberg and Aimee Hayes

It’s the greatest love story (almost) never told. This wildly funny and irresistibly romantic new adaptation of the Academy Award-winning film is fresh from its critically-acclaimed debut in London’s West End. Young Will Shakespeare has writer's block — until he meets Viola. Against a bustling backdrop of mistaken identity, ruthless scheming and backstage theatrics, their forbidden romance inspires a masterpiece.
