The Merely Players

Ever thought, “yeah, Shakespeare’s great and all, but, well, his plays are lacking something?” The Merely Players — An Improvised Shakespeare Show, are here to help. Based on audience suggestions, The Merely Players will improvise an entire Shakespearean play, truncating five acts of Bardic characters, settings, intrigue, wit, and poetry into a completely devised-in-the-moment performance. The play’s the thing!

Cast: Catherine Mullins, Zach Myers, Meredith Garagiola, Emily Dalton, Keegan Cassady, Sammy Garcia, Matt Mansfield, JoJo Franzen, Shawn Westfall
