My overall impression

What a fun show! Shakespeare’s comedy gets a new and very modern take on this tale of love with aliens dropping in to stir things up. Very clever use of items purchased at the 99 Cent Store to create outer space props that light up, and allowing the audience to participate by handing out glow sticks to wave at appropriate moments.Excellent musical and sound effects accompaniment by Greg Nicolett.

Classic Shakespeare lines from many of his plays and thrown in throughout, which garnered lots of laughs from the audience.

Life is but a walking shadow…. takes on new meaning!
