Shakespeare Lives! (a ten minute play) by
4 Sep. 2021
“
Shakespeare's no stranger to campy horror (see Titus) and that he comes stumbling back from the undiscovered country a zombie makes this uproarious 10-minute romp in a Stratford-on-Avon cemetery a dark delight. In the hands of a lesser playwright than Mark Harvey Levine, SHAKESPEARE LIVES! might have died on stage (pun intended), but the side-splitting jokes are perfectly balanced between Bard references and gags and the marvelous use of props and slapstick comedy. Three idiosyncratic roles, as well as a disassembled car, a tennis racket, and the lover's object of affection keep it insanely rewarding and a must-see. Will Done! ”
