Pick for the Week: Tiny Ninjas. Doing Shakespeare.

From my Shakespeare google alert list...written By Catherine Andrews , I found this gem--

"The Shakespeare in Washington festival is starting to wrap up, but there are still plays to see and things to do. For example, if you’re in the mood for some Shakespeare but are looking for something slightly more offbeat, try the hilarious Tiny Ninja Theater’s productions of Macbeth and Romeo and Juliet. The cast is populated with... inch-high plastic ninjas and dime-store toys. No, seriously. But give it a chance; in addition to being the funniest production of a tragedy that you’ll ever see, it’s skillful and often poignant. 6 pm at Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage, Monday through Thursday. (Monday and Tuesday is Macbeth; Wednesday and Thursday is Romeo and Juliet). Free."


Okay ninjas and Shakespeare! That concept is almost as good as Hockey & Chinese take out!
