What I liked

The intimate and immersive staging, versatile performers, and smart dialogue made for an amazing audience experience!

What I didn't like

Nothing comes to mind! I can’t wait to see how this piece evolves over the course of its run.

My overall impression

Leaving Shakespeare shines a light on the depth and complexity of Shakespeare’s heroines by intertwining their stories with the realities of modern womanhood to present an engaging mix of beautifully poignant and sharply funny vignettes. It’s a production that feels both timeless and so relevant to the current moment. You’ll walk away wishing this was the version of Shakespeare you’d been taught in English class!
