“The improv-comedy group Love, Shakespeare takes themes, tropes, tricks from the Bard's world (loosely defined), tosses them around the room, and spins those associations and expectations on their pointy heads.”

Love & most hearty approvals
“As two English majors, writers, and theatre parents, we adore Love, Shakespeare! One of us is a full-bore Shakespeare nerd, and we’ve visited Stratford and seen Shakespeare plays countless times. Of all the improv shows we’ve seen, Love, Shakespeare is our absolute favorite. We’ve seen it three times, and each one was different. Can’t wait to get back to another show!”
“I’ve seen the magic that is ‘Love, Shakespeare’ at least 4 times now, and it never disappoints! Every time - I laugh, I cry, and then I laugh some more. Thank you for consistently bringing love, delight, improvised poetry, and hilarious chaos into the hearts of your adoring fans! Can’t wait for the next show!”
“As a long time fan of Shakespeare who has nearly worked my way through the whole of William’s canon of work, I was feeling a little hopeless—once I wrap up reading Pericles, Henry VIII, and whatever else is still collecting dust on my shelf, will I simply be out of new Shakespeare forever? Apparently not! Love, Shakespeare does the impossible: it ensures that Ol’ Will has some new releases here in the 21st century!
Kill Will was a magical experience. Watching these actors play with rhythm, rhyme, and Shakespearean archetypes live on stage is simply amazing. Iambic verse, thees, thous, revenge tragedy, and expositional hauntings have never felt more alive! I can’t wait for the next performance!”
