It's Episode 129: Hoops of Steel: The Workshop! We only have two weeks left to raise the money we need to cover the costs of writing a brand-new Shakesqueerian musical that reimagines the Hamlet narrative from Ophelia's perspetive!

This imaginative alternative to Shakespeare’s Hamlet positions the story firmly in the 21st century, and paints vivid and believable portraits of Ophelia and Laertes, while opening up new meanings in this 400-year-old play. It’s smart, funny, and heartfelt. I can’t wait to see where Woodzick and Jules take this powerful piece!” -Amanda Giguere: Director of Outreach, Colorado Shakespeare Festival
