An absolutely stunning two-hander! It's Educating Rita and Masterclass with more fireworks and Shakespeare! The dialog sings and the characters are so rich and complex. I devoured it in one sitting!

Breathtaking! BREAKING THE SHAKESPEARE CODE has an electric energy running right through it. Two people alone in a rehearsal hall making breakthroughs about Shakespeare, acting, and themselves. Told in three scenes, this spans 16 years and shows us how powerful the connects we make in theatre can be.

If you are looking for a two-hander, this is the script for you!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I was hooked from the very beginning by this multilayered two-hander in which power and control ebb and flow back and forth continuously between the characters. The pace is sprightly, with just enough twists and turns to keep you interested but never so much that they distract. In the end, you’re left with a cleverly constructed and keenly observed meditation on the lines that get blurred when developing and manipulating emotions is at the very heart of your life’s work. This play is a gift to actors and highly recommended!
