79 Ways to Die
The Interactive Shakespeare Speedrun
79 Ways To Die is an interactive Shakespeare Speedrun featuring clowning, sword fights and puppetry. We take a unique look at the various deaths in William Shakespeare’s works. The show features a female cast interpreting male characters in order to critique the male centric lens classic literature is most often seen from. Once you get past how deeply problematic Shakespeare is to a modern audience, all the murder and mayhem is really a lot of fun! Just because the show is cursed doesn't mean you can't enjoy 2 people repeatedly, violently killing each other. Typically seen as a condensed show at Renaissance Faires, take this opportunity to see the show in it's entirety as part of "That's What She Said" playwrights festival the The Curtis Theatre in Brea, Calif.
Audience Role
Audience members will be invited on stage to play some characters from Shakespeare's tragedies.
Ages: 16 +

About Theatre of Mutiny
Theatre of Mutiny was born from a desire to break free from the constraints of traditional theater and find a new way to tell stories to an audience who would not typically consider themselves theatre goers. Founded by a group of visionary artists, we believe that as the rest of media changes, theatre should change with it. Our passion for the art of storytelling, our commitment to diversity and inclusion, and our relentless challenge of the status quo set us apart. Every day we remind ourselves that art and theatre have no rules and we can create whatever we want, however we want.
