Red Room Radio Redux brings you

“An Evening of Shakespeare.”

Red Room Radio Redux is an offshoot of the Red Room and is designed to present great literature in a readers theater format.

The first production of Red Room Radio Redux is
“An Evening of Shakespeare.”

In Act One the audience is invited to consider Shakespeare as a man of the theater in love with the magic of words to tell a story and reveal character. Scenes from Hamlet, Henry the Fourth, Romeo and Juliet, and A Midsummer Night’s Dream demonstrate Shakespeare’s love of actors and acting.

Act Two is a stripped down version of Shakespeare’s Tragedy of Macbeth. The scene recreates a broadcast from the Golden Era of Radio Drama and demonstrates how Shakespeare’s words pull the audience into the action. This is a version of Macbeth played as a thriller.
