Funk It Up About Nothin’
Chicago Shakespeare Theater
European Premiere
From the minds and rhymes behind The Bomb-itty of Errors comes the European premiere of Funk It Up About Nothin’—an “ad-rap-tation” of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing. The QBrothers transform the Bard’s romantic comedy into an exuberant hip-hop extravaganza, rapped to the rhythm of six MCs and a DJ. Straight from its acclaimed debut.

The Jonah Boy

To the remote Hebridean islanders the massive rare whalepup found washed up on their shores represents desperate prayers answered. But for the young man with the mind of a Boy it becomes life and death. A haunting tale by award-winning Richard Taylor and Jane Buckler, based on true events. “Darkly amorphous through-composed treatment with stirring ensembles” The Guardian
