When That I Was

Time: 07:00 pm - 08:30 pm

Location: Vertigo Theatre's Studio, 115 9 Ave SE

Website: www.shakespearecompany.com

Additional Info:
This tour-de-force performance won Betty Mitchell Awards for Best Actor (Christopher Hunt) and Best Director (Vanessa Porteous).
In 1650 the Puritans have closed the theaters and old Jack Rice, once a famous actor, is now is down on his luck. As a boy, he performed in Shakespeare's troupe, and he’s snuck back into the deserted theatre for some shelter. He himself is nothing more than a dusty, abandoned scrap of humanity - but his memory can take us to Queen Elizabeth’s palace, to the opening night of King Lear, and everywhere in between.

As an aging artist lost in a world that has moved on, Jack Rice speaks to the need for beauty and meaning in a world that sometimes lacks both.
