Shakespeare's King John

Imagine stumbling onto a brand new Shakespeare play—razor-sharp, funny, ferociously modern—a story about reckless power and those who dare to defy it which feels like it was written last Tuesday. This international collaboration between Macedonian director Damjan Dimovski and American actor Matthew Windham treats Shakespeare’s most neglected political thriller not as a relic to be dusted-off, but as a New Work: urgent, lean, audacious and alive. One performer. Zero filler. This calendar listing is brought to you by NowPlayingUtah.com, Utah’s one-stop, online website for arts and entertainment events, powered by the Utah Cultural Alliance.
