February 23 - March 10, 2024: Born With Teeth, written by Liz Duffy Adams, was staged in hte upstairs ballroom at The Eagles Club, downtown Bozeman. Directed by Marc Beaudin and starring Sarah West as Will Shakespeare and Kyrie Dawson as Christopher Marlowe, we staged nine performances. A young Shakespeare and his contemporary Christopher Marlowe meet in the back room of a pub to collaborate on a history play (which turns out to be Henry VI). Born with Teeth is set in a London pub in the 1590s London. Queen Elizabeth I is in the last years of her reign, and she has left no heir. Against the backdrop of religious and political peril, Shakespeare and Marlowe have to write a play that meets the approval of the increasingly authoritarian tyrannical ruler without crossing the line that would bring them imprisonment or death
