But, it also takes aim at the very real issue of the Hays Act which forced censorship into this creative medium. Playwright Ken Ludwig writes intelligently, frequently using the cadence of Shakespeare and cleverly peppering the dialogue with lines from many of the Bard's famous plays. And, the best part is, you don't have to know anything about Shakespeare to enjoy this show! Our ENTIRE CAST is brilliant! Thanks for coming to our glamorous Opening Night!
