The one that started it all. Synetic Theater’s haunting and wordless adaptation of Shakespeare’s iconic masterpiece, first performed in 2002, returns for a limited engagement, laying bare the tormented soul at the heart of one of literature’s greatest achievements, featuring our beloved Teen Company core ensemble, directed by Kaitlyn Shifflett.
This production will be preceded by our Pre Teen program’s twenty-minute performance of Magic Flower, directed by Synetic Company Member Maryam Najafzada (excluding the evening performance on Thursday, April 10).
