01
EPSTEIN TEMPEST
This modernization of Shakespeare's THE TEMPEST changes some names and genders and fewer than 500 words of the original text to tell a story about power, abuse, slavery, and magic, with familiar sounding names, like Prospero Epstein and his teenage daughter Lolita, King Donald J. Alonzo and his son Prince Santroo, with “men of sin” Aldershowix and Bilk Linten. And it paints a new picture on that 400 year old canvas.
02
AN AMERICAN EPIPHANY: J6 Pro Wrestling
Written posthumously by Gilbert & Sullivan, this musical comedy tells the story about January 6th, 2021, with song and dance and sports metaphors. The music is Gilbert & Sullivan's greatest hits, in classical style with modernized satirical lyrics.
03
HANG MIKE PENCE! HANG MIKE PENCE! The Musical
This is a punk rock version of AN AMERICAN EPIPHANY, with Gilbert & Sullivan music arranged for a punk rock band plus trumpets.
04
Xsbull Shakespeare
This project adds accessibility to Shakespeare's plays, with large monitors providing live captions on one side of the stage and snarky but informative commentary on the other side of the stage, while the actors perform their traditional roles. This helps audiences understand the words of The Bard with silent commentary from The Fool.
