Young Will Shakespeare has writer's block and is late in finishing his most recent play “Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate’s Daughter”. He is in desperate need of inspiration until he finds his muse – Viola, a beautiful young woman who wants nothing more than to perform onstage, where women are not permitted.

Set amidst a bustling background of mistaken identity, ruthless scheming and backstage theatrics, Will and Viola’s love blossoms and their passionate, forbidden love affair goes on to inspire Shakespeare’s masterpiece, the most romantic tragedy ever written.

Director Christine Kellogg leads the creative team consisting of current students and alumni Brittney Barton, set designer; Kristen Taylor, costume designer; Cole Hudson, wig and makeup designer; and Kelley Finn, lighting designer (’12).
