The Book of Will

Elmwood Playhouse presents, The Book of Will. March 13-April 11, 2026. Written by Lauren Gunderson. Directed by Lisa Spielman. Without William Shakespeare, we wouldn’t have literary masterpieces like Romeo and Juliet. But without Henry Condell and John Heminges, we would have lost half of Shakespeare’s plays forever! After the death of their friend and mentor, the two actors are determined to compile the First Folio and preserve the words that shaped their lives. They’ll just have to borrow, beg, and band together to get it done. Tickets on sale!
