THE MURDER OF GONZAGO JUNE 2ND, 2023 at 8:00PM and JUNE 3RD, 2023 at 2:00PM and 8:00PM

Written by Alan Irvine -- Directed by Ron Heneghan

The Murder of Gonzago is a modern comedy 'whodunnit' of Shakespearean caricatures – wealthy merchants of Venice, foolish constables, haughty stewards, and a bear from Bohemia.

It premiered at the 2015 Pittsburgh Fringe Festival and won the Spirit of the Fringe award. The play borrows the title from the most famous play never written - which Hamlet asks The Players to present to "Play something like the murder of my father…to catch the conscience of the King." For Veterans FREE.
