Name: Live at Heritage Center presents: The Improvised Shakespeare Company
Date: February 26, 2016
Time: 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM CST
Event Description:

Chicago's Improvised Shakespeare Company creates a fully improvised play using the language and themes of William Shakespeare. Each player has brushed up on his "thee's" and "thou's" to bring you an evening of off-the-cuff comedy filled with power struggles, star-crossed lovers, sword-play, asides, insults, persons in disguise, and all that we've come to expect from the pen of the Great Bard.

Nothing has been planned out, rehearsed, or written. All of the dialogue is spoken for the first time, the characters are created as you watch, and if ever you're wondering where the story is going...so are they! The night could reveal a tragedy, comedy, or history.

Much in the style of Chicago's famed Second City, each play is completely improvised, and therefore, entirely new! According to TimeOut Chicago, "It's a night of Elizabethan tomfoolery that's not to be missed."

The show will be preceded by a free pre-show concert on the Cyber Café Knapp Stage from 6:00 - 7:00 p.m. featuring the UD Campus Worship Music Ministry Team. Through music, they share God's word and love. The praise band includes numerous UD students on vocals and instruments.
