The UnSeam'd Shakespeare Company
Mission: The Unseam'd Shakespeare Company is dedicated to rediscovering and reinventing classic and classically inspired plays for modernaudiences, and presenting these plays in artistically ambitious and innovative productions. We seek to create tremendous opportunities for our actors, directors, and technicians, while maintaining affordable ticket prices for our patrons. We work to develop audiences for classic and classically inspired plays, with an appreciation of the power and excitement of live theater. We strive to create culturally diverse productions, with color-blind and cross-gender casting.
The Unseam'd Shakespeare Company is incorporated as a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Established 1994.
Unseam'd Shakespeare's examines the idea of want in two radically diverse works--Shakespeare's comic classic, As You Like It, and Alan Bowne's harrowing and provocative Beirut. The Bard's comedic commentary on the relationship between ambition and contrition makes for a compelling contrast between Bowne's exploration of desire and desperation in a dark, Orwellian future where sex and love are no longer an option...unless you break the rules.
We invite you to examine, to explore, to unseam these themes along with us this season, and discover what you really want.
Tickets are no longer for sale!
We've hosted performances such as the BEOWULF in collaboration with Ireland's Grendel Productions.
Unseam'd News:
Unseam'd hosted a swinging 60s cocktail hour for its June 30th performance of As You Like It. Soulcialism is set to spin groovy 1960s tunes while obscure, endangered cocktails are served by LUPEC (Ladies United for the Preservation of Endangered Cocktails). For a mere $22, you can enjoy cocktails and theater in the middle of the week.
