SUMMARY:My Own Private Shakespeare
DESCRIPTION:From a single fateful phone call taken reluctantly from the toilet\, a Shakespearean actor finds his world collapsing around him. As the story unfolds\, the unforgiving realities of his shattered life intertwine with Shakespeare’s radiant\, immortal text\, while the man teeters dangerously close to the brink. \nWritten and performed by Justin Hay\, known for his performance in the 2017 filmed adaptation “Richard III – Unto the Kingdom of Perpetual Night”\, the play draws on some of the greatest and most powerful passages from Shakespeare to ask: Is it possible to find peace with the impossible paradoxes of life? \n“My Own Private Shakespeare” has earned writer/performer Justin Hay critical and audience acclaim after successful runs in Toronto\, New York and the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe. A veteran of the stage and screen\, he trained at the Royal National Theatre in the UK. \nThe running time is approximately 55 minutes\, with no interval. Recommended for ages 14+. My Own Private Shakespeare contains themes of mental health\, suicide and trauma. \nCLICK HERE for more information and videos. \nTickets are available at TicketsPlease.ca \nThanks to the generous support of the Ontario Arts Council we are able to offer a $20 discount to those 30 and under\, and if they wish\, an additional $20 discount for their “guest” of any age. \nRegular – 31 years & older: $30 plus fees\nDiscount Single – 30 years & under: $10 plus fees\nDiscount Pair – 30 years & under with guest of any age (2 tickets): $20 plus fees \nFunding support provided by the Ontario Arts Council and the Government of Ontario
