A dotcom billionaire pays an esteemed American theatre company to translate Shakespeare into English (Wait. What?). World premiere three-character comedy based on an (unbelievably) true story from the Fringe First award-winning team, Brian Dykstra and Margarett Perry, starring Brian Dykstra, Kate Levy and Kate Siahaan-Rigg. 'To sell out or not to sell out - is that the question?' Playwright, actor and HBO Def Poet, 'Brian Dykstra wields a monologue like a sword!' (Variety). 'Brian Dykstra is a master of language' (Huffington Post). 'Lenny Bruce would have saluted - maybe even toked a joint with Brian Dykstra.' (Curtain Up).
