Shakespeare. You’ve heard of him. This play has all the vicious insults, bloody blades, cross-dressed ladies and compromised bedchambers you’ve come to expect from the man. But then things get nuts. It’s a no-holds-barred epic, a dark fairy tale set off by a king’s rash verdict and a princess who won’t stand for her man’s wrongful banishment.
