Beardsley Vale

Beardsley Vale is a Shakespeare-inspired tragicomedy set in a tiny New England town in the fall and winter of 2000. Over a dozen major characters strut the political and theatrical stage of Beardsley Vale as the nation is deadlocked between Gore and Bush while the Town Manager election parallels the national crisis. Meanwhile numerous other dramas are playing out across town with characters and plots borrowed from King Lear Romeo and Juliet Macbeth and The Tempest.
