A fiery feminist comedy where a forgotten woman storms Shakespeare’s plague quarantine to reclaim her genius—and the spotlight.

About this Event

SUMMARY OF JANE ANGER by Talene Monahon

It’s 1606, the plague is raging, and William Shakespeare is very sick… with writer’s block. Unhappily quarantined with his peasant apprentice, the Bard tries in vain to write his next great masterpiece. Up through the window climbs Jane Anger, a Cunning Woman with a massive sack, and a scheme to change history.

This play is not suitable for audiences under 17 years old due to language and gore.
