FRONT ROW TO MURDER

WORLD PREMIERE SUMMER 2025

Big city detective, Jo Marshall, has come to the small town of Worthingtam, to watch her aunt perform in the local theater’s cozy whodunnit. However, the play takes a deadly turn, and Jo has a Front Row for Murder, when someone is killed onstage during the performance. Now pulled into a very real murder mystery, the detective must sort through a cast of quirky characters and confusing clues to get to the bottom of the deadly drama before the killer can act again.

PERICLES: BORN IN A TEMPEST

An inventive reimagining of William Shakespeare’s 'Pericles' that places the seafaring adventure within a fresh next context: Prince Pericles' adventures come to vivid life for a modern-day woman as she immerses herself in a book of stories her recently deceased father wrote for her. PERICLES: BORN IN A TEMPEST retains Shakespeare's original language but pares down the sprawling tale, distilling the rarely-produced romance to a heartwarming story of the rejuvenating power of family.

AND TO THE REPUBLIC 

Our American republic has weathered political strife, assassinations, even a civil war. But what if the conspiracy comes from the top? It happened in Rome on March 15th 44 BCE, and the most powerful country on earth, a republic that had endured for more than four hundred years, slipped into the waiting arms of empire.

Are we really so different? Could it happen here? What better way to grapple with these questions than through the lens of the most notorious political killing in history and through the words of the greatest writer in history?

Jordan Reeves and the Guerrilla Shakesperare Project have taken Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra to the chop shop, stripped them down, and rebuilt them from the ground up as a modern American political thriller, tossing in a few spare parts from Coriolanus and Titus Andronicus along the way.

It’s his language…It’s our story.
