PROPOSED: WILLIAM the Musical
Location and dates to be announced - Expected April/May“William†– an award-winner at the New York Fringe Festival in 2013. William Shakespeare is 28, word has just started to spread about this playwright in London, and he is quickly evolving from a mediocre writer to a literary genius. Taking its starting point in the year 1592, the performance tries to find the answer to a 400-year-old mystery - who was William Shakespeare? A fantastic musical performance that reveals much about Shakespeare and his time, delving into the famous 154 sonnets, written with his unbridled lust for life, humour, passion for love, budding insanity, impotence and jealousy. Experience the talented Swedish actor and singer Jonas Nerbe in the company of a female string quartet consisting of two violins, one viola and a cello. Together, they brilliantly tell the tale of the world’s most famous playwright, William Shakespeare. (viennatheatreproject.com)
