Shakespeare: Call and Response is a dynamic dialogue between the greatest writer of all time and the dynamic citizens of America’s Finest City, leaving both transformed for the better. No two shows are the same, but all include scenes from five significant Shakespeare plays. Part “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” and part The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), the event is anchored by a DJ inviting the crowd in while spinning hits to get people on their feet. Built for plazas and outdoor venues, the piece features five virtuosic actors, who transform into a variety of roles based on feedback from the audience. Rooted in a vibrant interplay between performers and audience, Shakespeare: Call and Response is an hour-long celebration of verse, music, dance, and audience participation. The tour kicks off on Tuesday, October 26, with an opening night performance on Thursday, October 28, and runs for three weeks, from Tuesdays to Sundays, with a culminating closing night performance on Novemin beautiful Balboa Park. A list of venues, dates, and times is below.
