Walking Shadow Shakespeare Project

Henry VI.i
May 25, 2025
Reserve Your Free Seats Here!
This is the story of a young English king thrust into power, those that would take it from him, and their fight to maintain an English foothold in France against French armies led by Joan of Arc. You can think of this as the prequel to the War of the Roses if you like, but we're thinking of it as Lisa Frank vs Tim Burton for ultimate control of young minds!

Our cast has gotten together from across the country to rehearse one single time before performing, and we all can't wait to see what happens! This performance is free to the public (donations gladly accepted) and will take place in Pease District Park on May 25th at 7:30 pm.

Looking For Guests!

Can she argue that Hamlet would be the most fun date? Or that 7 year old Mamillius is Shakespeare’s best villain?
