Tragedy or Triumph: An Improvised Shakespearean Epic
The Spontaneous Shakespeare Company—John Hirsch Mainstage
It’s clear this company has an extremely strong grasp of the language. They are well studied and even included and improvised chorus- and rhyming couplets to end scenes! The chemistry between the performers is often extremely apparent, though I noticed here and there that energy wasn’t being matched. It was a disappointing thing to note in an otherwise fun and engaging presentation. Overall the piece is ambitious, well studied, well-performed, and fun, despite the hiccups.

The Spontaneous Shakespeare Company
Tragedy or Triumph: An Improvised Shakespearean Epic—John Hirsch Mainstage
The Spontaneous Shakespeare company are returning to Winnipeg after their 2023 hit, Breaking Bard. We take your everyday story and turn it into an epic tale worthy of the Bard. Improvised entirely (well, mostly) in iambic pentameter you will swear that this group of fine thespians are reciting Shakespeare himself, except for all the times the show devolves into improvised insanity. Shakespeare fans and novices alike, come see theatre, improv and Shakespeare like you’ve never seen it before!
