Overview

Shakespeare with Noodles is a program designed to be young people's first introduction to Shakespeare. Costumes and prop pieces are constructed from swimming noodles. Utilizing melodrama and slap stick comedy, our shows are fast paced. All titles in the series have a playing time of under an hour. The Tragedy of King Lear has been broken into two parts. King Lear: Part 1 and King Lear's Backside. Part 1 has a playing time of one hour, King Lear's Backside is 50 minutes. It is after all, Shakespeare's longest play. We devoted two seasons to it. With its beautifully interwoven plots of familial discord, it's worth devoting two seasons to. The Fool's epilogue in Part 1 and Prologue for Lear's Backside, create a transition between the two plays. Obviously it's not part of Shakespeare's Lear. Should you choose to perform the two plays together as one full production, omit these. The script has been edited with performance continuity in mind. Lines sometimes are distributed to characters who do not say them in the original. Our scripts are also tailored to incorporate girls into traditionally male roles. The genders used reflect the actors who played them in our production. Likewise in battle scenes we kill off any characters not required in the final scene.Should you prefer to present a more traditional approach, this series easily accommodates this.Shakespeare with Noodles is a program designed to be young people's first introduction to Shakespeare.
