ABOUT THE SHOW
To thine own self be true.
And all that jazz.
Sometimes you gotta break a few eggs to make a musical.
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and then there’s Nick and Nigel Bottom.
Two brothers stuck in the shadow of a certain Renaissance rock star (Shakespeare), set forth to knock him off his perch by writing the world’s very first musical.
A misinformed soothsayer plants the seeds for this brilliant idea as the task of how to upstage a literary genius without really trying hilariously unfolds.
This history-twisting mash-up of sixteenth-century Shakespeare and twenty-first-century Broadway is a love letter to musical theater complete with outrageous characters, dazzling showstoppers, and all the winks and flourishes that make us feel that “with a musical we might have half a chance!"
