Sunday, October 23 at 4:00 pm
TSC's annual Shout-Out Series presents Shakespeare’s poetic tragedy offered free of charge at nine different outdoor venues throughout Shelby County. This 85-minute adaptation features six actors performing as Shakespeare’s players did while touring: with character/costume changes on-stage and sound effects accomplished by hand. No tickets are required; but please bring a chair, blanket, and picnic!
"Something wicked this way comes." How is it possible for an entire country to fall into the hands of a tyrant? What must the citizens do to reclaim their suddenly fragile free society? Celebrating the stagecraft known to William Shakespeare’s touring groups, Memphis audiences get to engage in the magic of actor transformation six actors remain onstage in a circle of support for the entire performance, adding a live soundscape and deftly changing roles moment-to-moment. The performance runs approximately 80 minutes without intermission.
