DICKIE’S GOT HIS HANS FULL - "Shakespeare Birthday Celebration"

WORLD PREMIERE EVENT!

Friday, April 23, 2027 - "Shakespeare 463 Birthday Celebration."

Join us Opening Night for a festive literary celebration featuring themed treats, birthday festivities, and a photo with the birthday boy himself!

Written and Directed by TODD OLSON

A story about genius, chaos, and a very unexpected houseguest.

“We specialize in nothing special.”

From the Executive Director:

"We close our inaugural season with something completely different: a hilarious World Premiere comedy from award-winning playwright and director Todd Olson (My Way, I Left My Heart). Inspired by real events, we get a glimpse of what may have happened when Hans Christian Andersen came to visit Charles Dickens’ summer home for two weeks…and stayed for five! The visit quickly spirals into a clash of personalities, egos, family tensions, theatrical chaos...and cake.

This show is smart, fast, funny, and full of larger-than-life characters. It's exactly the kind of comedy that reminds us why live theatre is such a joy. And because this is a world premiere, you’ll be among the very first audiences anywhere to experience it.

That’s something special." -W.M.
