Shakespeare in Hollywood

Shakespeare in Hollywood

Step into the Spotlight at the Adelaide Repertory Theatre with Ken Ludwig’s Hilarious “Shakespeare in Hollywood”

Get ready to be transported to the golden age of Hollywood in a dazzling mix of comedy, chaos, and Shakespearean mischief! The acclaimed play Shakespeare in Hollywood by Tony Award-winning playwright Ken Ludwig is set to enchant audiences with its witty dialogue, fast-paced humour, and star-studded intrigue.

Based on the original film, it’s a ‘don’t miss’ screwball comedy with supernatural elements, a fun-filled romp that pays homage to both Shakespeare and the golden age of Hollywood.

It’s 1934, and Shakespeare’s most famous fairies, Oberon and Puck, have magically materialised on the set of the Warner Brothers film set of ‘Midsummer Night’s Dream’ Smitten by the glitz and glamour of show biz, the two are ushered onto the silver screen to play (who else?) themselves.

Don’t miss this chance to revel in Ludwig’s witty storytelling and Shakespearean charm!
