6 ACTORS, 6 DIFFERENT PLAYS...WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?
Six actors performing six different plays will do Shakespeare as Shakespeare has never been done before. As our 18 month-long Winter of Discontent draws to a close and All The World Becomes A Stage again, come and see Confusion Make Its Masterpiece in this hilariously mad Shakespearean mash-up that will have you rolling in the aisles and the Bard turning in his grave.
