The Tempest and Measure for Measure

Renaissance Now Theatre & Film offers a pair of Shakespeare plays in "now speak" adaptations that mix the original text with additions in modern language: a classical-style version of the fantastcal shipwreck tale The Tempest, adapted and directed by troupe leader director Kathy Curtiss; and a contemporary reimagining of the proto-#MeToo problem play Measure for Measure, directed by Sonja Hugo and adapted by Steven Rimke. The productions rotate in rep in matinee and evening performances throughout the three-day run.
