wherever you arrive
they’ll be there first,

glossy and rowdy
and indistinguishable.
The deep muscle of the world.

Mary Oliver, “Crows”

by william shakespeare
directed by gabriel anderle, lucy farrell, jack oleg, jillian rowe
produced by gabriel anderle

In this adaptation of one of Shakespeare’s lesser-produced plays about the English Crown, the historical and contemporary world blend into a slurry of political division, abuses of power, and vapes. Weaving contemporary text with a generously cut version of King John, this production highlights those peripheral to the king — investigating the repercussions of absolute power on those without it.
