Who doesn’t love to “do a new concept” or have a “fresh take” or “totally recontextualize” Shakespeare “for the modern audience”? In To Thine Own Self Be Shrew, The Shrews arrive fully costumed in a random theme: could be 1950s New York City, Panama City Beach 2013, or the zombie apocalypse. We ask the audience for the title of an actual Shakespeare play, and the “director” gives their “directors note” to the audience on their “concept” for the show, and our one-act improvised Shakespeare play ensues!
