Act V puts on An Hour with Shakespeare
ByMany are at least a little intimidated by the works of William Shakespeare. Shippensburg University students and ACT V directors Robert “BJ” Hile and James “Jimmy” Wright may have found the ideal solution to make these timeless works more accessible. In fact, they may have underestimated their success, as Wednesday’s audience continued to swell and exceed the number of available seats, creating a scramble to locate and provide additional chairs more than once. Wright, Hiles and SU’s student theater group ACT V, presented six bite-sized pieces of Shakespeare’s plays in their production of “An Hour with William Shakespeare.” Performances were held in Henderson gymnasium on April 16 and 17.
