Payment is on a lo/no/deferred basis.

Director: Adam Marple. The War of the Roses rages on. In the middle of the bloody maelstrom are two men with the forward momentum to take their country in wildly divergent directions. As one ascends to a higher state of existence no longer needing the trappings of a crown, the other descends to a dark and dangerous place where the crown is all that is visible in his sights. Wide Eyed Productions is teaming up with Columbia University's MFA program to produce this unique and passionate interpretation of Shakespeare's first play. It will go up at the prestigious East 13th Street Theatre starting July 1 and ending July 24.
