Bill's Buddies' performances are fresh and exciting every year - bringing together scenes you may be familiar with and some you've probably never heard of (with the occasional swordfight for fun!) to explore Shakespeare's rich language and how his words reach us today.
This year's scenes explore what it means to come of age in Shakespeare's plays. Students will see a lot of themselves in these scenes, and recognize that they are not so different from Shakespeare's characters.
