to
Now in their 6th year, Willful Pictures produces the Sonnet Slam which is a NYC celebration of Shakespeare's birthday. They welcome all who want to hear the sonnets and even standby readers who may want to jump in and perform a sonnet. Please dress warmly, bring a snack and enjoy.
Free for the public to attend, the Sonnet Slam features 154 readers of all ages performing all 154 of Shakespeare's Sonnets in numerical order.
This event is held at the Naumburg Bandshell rain or shine.
The completely original, hit musical comedy, Something Rotten! sweetens the 6th Annual Shakespeare's Birthday Sonnet Slam this year with a musical performance of "Hard to be the Bard" by cast member Eric Sciotto (Broadway credits: Annie Get Your Gun, Aida, Sweet Smell of Success, Sweet Charity and 42nd Street among others).
Now approaching their one-year anniversary, Something Rotten! plays at the St. James Theatre.
