Gerry Kowalenko talks with Rachel Peake, the director of Something Rotten, one of the musicals presented at this year Theatre Under the Star.
“ In the streets of Elizabethan England, William Shakespeare is a Renaissance rock star while playwright siblings Nick and Nigel Bottom are stuck in his shadow.
Desperate to write a hit show, the Bottom brothers enlist the aid of a mysterious soothsayer who foresees they can beat the Bard’s success by creating a brand new form of theatre… the musical!”
The show runs until August 26 at the Malkin Bowl in Stanley Park.
