The Lady of Shalott
Date/Time
Location
Looky Here Greenfield (28 Chapman Street, Greenfield MA)
Join Chainmail Circus for a special presentation of our original play "The Lady of Shalott," a modern-day reimagining of the classic poem by Tennyson!
Our play is about a young woman who secludes herself in her room, getting everything she needs delivered to her door. Her only interactions with the outside world are through the messages she gets from viewers as she streams her daily life online. She is drawn out of her room when she sees a photo of Lancelot, the man of her dreams. The show is interactive, as we encourage audience members to participate in the live chat as the Lady of Shalott streams live on Twitch in real time.
We performed this show this past summer at the Portland and Providence Fringe Festivals, and now we are bringing it to Greenfield! It has been referred to as a "feminist reimagining of Tennyson's story," and it was praised for having "one of the best sight gags you will see at fringe" by a Portland Fringe independent reviewer.
Shows are December 5 & 6 at 7 pm
