FREE Reading NYC - New Shakespeare Musical Comedy

Please join us for an industry reading of a brand new full length musical comedy, "The Un-Authorized Biographie of Billy Shakespeare" by Michael Perrie Jr.

"In 1603, history was made...but what history doesn't know won't hurt it."

Do you enjoy tuneful, new musicals?

Ever wonder how Hamlet got his name or pondered the curse of Macb-- The Scottish Play?

How did Shakespeare come up with all of those ideas for plays?

Will anyone have sex or will they all just use metaphors and imagery and off-stage tactics?

Here you'll find; (largely made-up) answers to those questions, a cast of zany characters, a love story, kings, queens, kings who might be queens, all manner of nefarious goings-on, sex, swordplay, sexual innuendos, and The Bard himself, all wrapped up in one original new musical by me, Michael Perrie Jr.

SHOWTIMES:
Friday, March 13th @7 PM
Saturday, March 14th @ 1 PM

@ Studios 353 in Hell's Kitchen
