Recommended Event - One Performance Only!

The Instant Shakespeare Company's reading of The Merchant of Venice will be presented at the St. Agnes Branch of the New York Public Library, 444 Amsterdam Avenue (at 81st) on 

Saturday, June 13th at 1:00 P.M.  

       The entire three hour play from the Raw Shakespeare Pocket Edition of the First Folio will be performed.

 The Instant Shakespeare readings are set up to make Shakespeare accessible. The readings are usually done without rehearsal, but they are on-your-feet Instant staged readings where the readers/actors move around as much as they feel comfortable. Readers are encouraged to share with their fellow readers and the audience so that the plays can exist as words and thoughts communicated through space, not just words on the page.
