VERILY MADLY, THINE

“…brilliantly compiled and directed by AC Horton…”
- Sherri Rase, Q on Stage

“In 2018, The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey launched a new summer touring company, The Shrewd Mechanicals. The work of this tight-knit ensemble of young professionals met with much acclaim in their debut season

Verily, Madly, Thine will feature a wonderful array of moments from Shakespeare’s plays as well as a few selections from more contemporary authors who have been inspired by one of Shakespeare’s originals. It features a delightful sprinkling of music, and these 60 minutes about falling in love will make you fall in love with this delightful and entertaining collection of scenes inhabited by the victims of Cupid’s arrows.”
