Wide Eyed Productions in association with Columbia University School Of The Arts Theatre Arts Program presents William Shakespeare'S HENRY VI PART 3 July 1 - July 24 at East 13th Street Theatre. This is Wide Eyed's third theatrical season in NYC, and Henry VI is the company's eleventh full-length production under founding artistic director Kristin Skye Hoffmann.

Revenge and ambition battle for the crown in the bloodiest chapter of the English Civil War.

"You should certainly keep your eyes wide for whatever they do next."
---Jack Hanley, nytheatre.com

"Wide Eyed Productions not only keeps the audience interested...but the actors appear to be having a genuinely good time doing so." ---William Coyle, Off Off Online

"This wacky ensemble performance is strangely uplifting and...thoroughly heartwarming....A World Elsewhere kept me engaged, amused and actually moved by its nonsensical singsong and dance." --- Lindsay Kaplan, Time Out NY

"Some very committed physical comedians... and actors trading some very bizarre but funny lines... keeps A Devil Inside's audience immersed in its strange, rapturous odyssey 'til the terrible end." ---Mary Block, The L Magazine
