“Gender Play, or what you Will” | Actors Theatre (multiple shows)
Will is a trans actor seeking purpose and belonging, despite not seeing their story reflected in media or history. In their most desperate hour, they hold a seance to summon one of the oldest and queerest playwrights of the English language — William Shakespeare!
The two are becoming total besties and Will invites you to an impromptu party to celebrate this new friendship.
Join Will & Will as they reclaim the Bard’s old plays in all of their original homoerotic, cross-dressing, genderfluid glory. But to meet the guest of honor, we must perform the seance again, together.
GENDER PLAY, OR WHAT YOU WILL l promises a mystical journey of queer joy, laughter, tarot, and self-discovery through the classics.
