Gender Play, or what you Will

Will Wilhelm & Brannon Bowers—Tom Hendry Warehouse

Tarot. The Bard. A Seance.

Oh myyy.

Experiencing Will Wilhelm’s meticulous artistry over the Shakespeare’s words was wonderful to witness. We are invited to dive deep, not only in the words of the texts studied by any theatre hopefuls, but into our own self discovery as well. A unique reclaiming and recreation of the works, this play was bursting with queer energy and enthusiasm.

For anyone looking to see Shakespeare through their original genderfluid glory, and if “brevity is the soul of wit”…

Don’t miss it.

Gender Play, or what you Will—Tom Hendry Warehouse

Fresh off a US tour to Tony-Award Winning theatres such as Steppenwolf and Actors Theatre of Louisville, GENDER PLAY makes its international debut!

In this highly anticipated Fringe Festival Debut, award-winning “theatrical trans trailblazer” Will Wilhelm invites you to a “resistance [that] is bedazzled and joyous.” (Chicago Reader)

GENDER PLAY rediscovers Shakespeare by returning to its original, gender-imaginative roots, and invites everyone into the expansive possibilities inherent to queer liberation. We begin by summoning Shakespeare himself at the Tom Hendry Warehouse. Don’t miss it!

“Both welcoming and irresistible… powerful and transformative.” – Stage Door Louisville
