Howwewill.org - Hip-hop Shakespeare

Laris dropped me a line to ask me to promote http://www.howwewill.org . It documents the development of a production of Shakespeare's 12th Night, but it's not your normal Shakespeare. This is a hip hop version, the catch of this actual performance is the theater company is doing the play as a hip-hop version, but unlike other hip-hop Shakespeare the performers are keeping the text as is.
 

During the production we conducted a lot of community engagement, a large part was focussed on the younger community members. Especially those that had limited, or no arts programming in their schools.

The website (howwewill.org) itself tracks the development of the performance, including the community interaction with the process
