That short question is posed by the Countess in Act III, Scene 2 of All’s Well That Ends Well. And all’s well indeed, for I’ve returned thither to The Lyric Stage Company of Boston where I was last seen on stage more than two years ago!
I’ll soon be appearing as Ralph Crane, scrivener to The King’s Men theatrical troupe, in the heartfelt comedy The Book of Will. As the Lyric describes it:
Seven years after the death of Shakespeare, a small group of unexpected heroes with no money, resources, or experience come together to compile what would become Shakespeare’s First Folio. This rapid fire and buoyant play tells the story of those who knew Shakespeare best as they fight to collect 37 of his plays into one volume against all odds. Their translation of words from the stage to the page would forever change theater and literature.
The show is warm, funny, accessible to all, and chock full of some of Boston’s most charming actors. If you’re fully fully vaxxed and got a mask on you, I hope to see you there!
The Book of Will runs February 25 through March 27 at The Lyric Stage Company in Back Bay. Book tickets online.
