Bootleg Shakespeare: Free This Sunday

Presented by the Taffety Punk Theatre Company. From artistic director Marcus Kyd:

Join us on April 20th, 8:00 pm, at Round House Theatre for a free and (more or less) spontaneous production of Shakespeare's HENRY VIII. With the exception of an RSC tour in 1998, this play hasn't been produced in DC for nearly 140 years.

This is the second installment of our BOOTLEG SHAKESPEARE series. What we do is cast all the actors a month in advance. On the day of the performance, we all meet to rehearse (ins and outs, intentions), and at 8:00 we do the play in its entirety for the first and last time.

Round House Theatre Silver Spring is at 8641 Colesville Road, Silver Spring MD 20910. It is next to AFI, two blocks from the Silver Spring Metro on the Red Line.
