Player’s Shakespeare, a multi-tiered arm of Gallery Players, in collaboration with South Brooklyn Shakespeare and The Rogue & Peasant Players announces a celebratory reading of the entire Shakespeare Canon along with the opening of Player’s Shakespeare-Studio to commemorate the 400th Anniversary of the death of The Bard.
2016 marks the 400th anniversary of the loss of the man widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world’s pre-eminent dramatist.

This will take place over 4 jam-packed weekends covering The Histories (April 1-3), The Comedies (July 1-3), The Tragedies (August 5-7) and The Romances (October 30-November 2).
