Welcome to
the Will and the Ghost Crowdfunding page!
The
Cause:
Your support will go towards the production budget of
Will and the Ghost, by Aoise Stratford and Conal Condren, which will be
performed as part of inaugural Black Box @ The Bakehouse initiative.
Imagine Anonymous meets Misery… Will and the Ghost envisages how some of our
favourite plays might have been conceived in a supernatural Elizabethan
parallel universe. Our production is an intriguing, fictional look at the
greatest playwright the world has ever seen… William Shakespeare.
This is your chance to support
homegrown independent theatre!
The Rub:
“Will Shakespeare is mugged after drinking at the Bear's Head Tavern one night.
The stranger who rescues him and takes him home is "an out-of -work actor
specialising in the portrayal of ghosts". He sets out to persuade Will to
write parts for him. Will is reluctant, until the stranger discovers that the
writer has been stealing plays from his peers. Under threat of exposure, Will
enters into a pact with the stranger. But is he dealing with a man or a
poltergeist? And what does he risk if he guesses wrongly?”
The
Performances:
Dates 15th - 25th August, 8pm
The Bakehouse Theatre, Angas Street, Adelaide

some of our favourite plays might have been conceived in a supernatural,
Elizabethan parallel universe. A darkly humorous flight of fantasy this is
Shakespeare, as you’ve never seen him before.
