Shakespeare with Noodles Margaret Marsh

Shakespeare with Noodles is a program designed to be young people's first introduction to Shakespeare. Costumes and prop pieces are constructed from swimming noodles. All titles in the series have a playing time of under an hour. The script has been edited with performance continuity in mind. Lines sometimes are distributed to characters who do not say them in the original. Our scripts are also tailored to incorporate girls into traditionally male roles. The genders used reflect the actors who played them in our production. Should you prefer to present a more traditional approach, this series easily accommodates this. In our version of MacBeth greed, ambition and three weird sisters (along with their farting caldron) lead to murder, madness, whipped cream frenzy and culminates in a battle that leaves virtually no one living. Kids love it!
