Recommendations of What Happened While Hero Was Dead

  • Kate Busselle: What Happened While Hero Was Dead

    I love this play so much! As a Shakespeare nerd and feminist, I love the sexual awakening of Hero and her feminist awakening fighting against the period, culture, and norms of the period. A fabulous work for college students to sink their teeth into for movement and physical comedy while also creating emotionally complex journeys. A wonderful play! It's going on my directing bucket list.

  • Katie Pelensky: What Happened While Hero Was Dead

    If you leave every production of Much Ado thinking "I mean, I love it, but I feel like Hero gets pretty screwed over...."
    1. You're right.
    2. Meghan Brown will serve you a delicious slice of theatre cake that lets you spend an hour or two with Hero and her dilemma.
    Sharp, hilarious, heart breaking, and with opportunities for directors and actors to PLAY.
