A World Elsewhere
Sam Wanamaker Playhouse
If your kids think Shakespeare is something that happens to other people, this might change their minds. The creators behind Rough Magic take a boy's wild imagination as their stage: adventures borrowed from Shakespeare's stories, but the rules start breaking down. It's the kind of show that works for a 6-year-old and a 60-year-old because the magic is in the storytelling, not the spectacle.
The Sam Wanamaker Playhouse has the intimacy this needs. You're pulled into Cass's unraveling world and watching a production that makes you think about why stories matter in the first place. Olivier-nominated creators, ages 5 to 105 invited, no condescension in sight.
