WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE'S STAR WARS by Ian Doescher

MAY THE VERSE BE WITH YOU!

Co-Presented by the Elliott Bay Book Company, ReAct Theatre and Quirk Books, you dare not miss this special staged reading event of the officially licensed retelling of George Lucas's epic STAR WARS in the style of the immortal Bard of Avon. The saga of a wise knight and an evil lord, of a beautiful princess held captive and a young hero coming of age, this special retelling abounds with all the valor and villainy of Shakespeare's greatest plays. Reimagined in glorious iambic pentameter, WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE'S STAR WARS is an event that has to be seen and heard by everyone who loves either Shakepeare, Star Wars, or both!

IAN DOESCHER's amazing companion book (released July 2nd) will be available at the event, along with some special Star Wars door prizes. Ian will be autographing copies of his book immediately after the October 20th reading.

Directed by DAVID HSIEH, the cast includes JEREMY ADAMS as Luke Skywalker, CASEY STRYER as Han Solo, JULIA BEERS as Princess Leia Organa, GORDON HENDRICKSON as Obi-Wan Kenobi, MICHAEL OAKS as Governor Tarkin, BRACE as Darth Vader and Chewbacca the Wookie, TREVOR CUSHMAN as C-3PO, RACHEL RENE as R2-D2, DON TAYLOR as Uncle Owen, HOLLY MYERS as Aunt Beru, as well as the talents of PATRICK LENNON and KEVIN LIN!
