Shakespeare's Worst! A Play on a Play

This page is for upcoming news of The 30-Minute Shakespeare book series

Coming in Fall  2019:

Henry V: The 30-Minute Shakespeare

Richard III: The 30-Minute Shakespeare

Both of these adaptations were performed as part of Folger Shakespeare Library's

Secondary School Shakespeare Festival.  

The 30–Minute Shakespeare is a series of abridgements that tell the "story" of each play from start to finish while keeping the beauty of Shakespeare's language intact. Specific stage directions and character suggestions give even inexperienced actors the tools to perform Shakespeare with confidence, understanding, and fun!
