Enter, stage left.
In the theater world, the term means a quiet, inconspicuous way to take the stage. But the upcoming first show of Ludington’s newest troupe and soon-to-be nonprofit, the Stage Left Theatre Company, will be anything but low-key.
“The Shakespeare in Love Dinner Theatre is the first official event under the Stage Left Theatre Company name,” said Stage Left Board Member and Co-founder Kara Rose. “It’s very exciting.”
Shakespeare in Love will be a variety show, featuring a number of the playwright’s best-known works.
“And we have some of Shakespeare’s love sonnets peppered in,” Rose said. “It’s kind of fun, because you can add your own little changes to them.”
Attendees can expect iconic scenes from “Romeo and Juliet,” “Hamlet,” “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” “Much Ado About Nothing,” and “Taming of the Shrew,” among others.
Opening night is Friday, Feb. 10, with doors opening at 7 p.m. and the show kicking off at 7:30 p.m. A second performance will be held Feb. 17. Tickets are $40 per person or $75 per couple, and include a set menu and beverage.
Blu Moon Bistro, on South James Street, will be the dinner theater’s venue.
