What gift are we going to give Shakespeare for his 450th birthday?

The Bremer Shakespeare Company has decided on the premiere of a birthday performance, which the British author Jessica Swale commissioned: “All's Will that ends Will“ became a brilliant interplay between humour, reason and delight in theatre. We meet all sorts of famous personalities from the Elizabethan era and from Shakespeare's plays. And finally all will be revealed that remained a secret due to the mysterious state of their sources...

There will be insults, swooning, singing and dancing, ad majorem Will's gloriam, to the delight of his faithful audience.

NRW Premiere
In cooperation with the Deutsche Shakespeare Gesellschaft
