Monsterpeice Theater Collective proudly presents BATTLE OF THE BARD, a new twist on the old texts.

Two plays both alike in dignity come to the theater in a new audience interactive piece. Eight actors go in, who will come out? Strap yourselves in for a no holds Bard theatrical experience like you've never seen before, and this time you get to vote! That's right the presidential election isn't the only thing you'll be voting for in 2016!

A battle of this ferocity hasn't been seen since Axis vs Allies, Rocky vs Creed, Kong vs. Godzilla, Republican vs. Democrat, North vs. South... you get the idea. The difference is: YOU choose the outcome! Imagine a world where your vote actually counted. It's Romeo and Juliet versus Midsummer Nights Dream with more audience interaction and participation than you can shake a stick at.

You may think you know what you're getting into when you go to the theater, this time you'll have no clue. Prepare yourselves!

Directed by Anthony D. Pound, the ensemble includes Jacob Banser, Jessica Booker, Charlie Coursey Jr., Brenan Grant, Katia Haeuser, Anna Rock, Kaitlyn Schirard, and Robert Tarushka. Music by Liam Selby. Assistant Directed by Kate Tenetko and Jeremy Weber.

BATLE OF THE BARD runs tonight, June 29th, through July 2nd @ 8pm and July 2nd and 3rd @ 2pm at Theater 54 @ Shetler Studios, 244 West 54th Street 12th floor. Tickets can be purchased at battletickets.bpt.me. More information, go to monsterpiececollective.com.
