Prepare for a plague of the undead… with a Shakespearean twist!
Maplewood Barn is thrilled to present "William Shakespeare’s Land of the Dead!" Set during the Elizabethan era, this wildly imaginative horror-comedy explores the lost years of the Bard as a zombie outbreak descends upon London. Trapped inside the Globe Theatre with fellow legends like Francis Bacon, Anne Hathaway, and even Queen Elizabeth herself, Shakespeare must wield his wit and his quill to survive the apocalypse!
Sword fights. Soliloquies. And so. Many. Zombies.
Co-Directed by Mark Baumgartner and Chris Bowling, performances will be August 28th through 31st and September 4th through 7th. Don't miss this hilariously gory mashup of high art and undead mayhem! Pack a chair, your favorite blanket, and join us at the Barn for a night of theatre under the stars!
