12th Night

Of The Living Dead

(an extreme staged reading)

 

 

(pictures)

In the latter half of the year 1601, William Shakespeare brought his new work, Twelfth Night, to his contemporary Ben Jonson. After reading the piece, Jonson was purported to say “It’s not bad William, but about the zombies . . . ” As William had a certain affinity for zombies (his father was a butcher), he quickly renamed the piece “Twelfth Night of the Living Dead” and mentioned the change to some locals. These locals could not remember the latter half of the title and the play was thus coined “Twelfth Night; or, What you Will”. We are proud to present the play as Shakespeare intended it.
