Three years after Shakespeares death, his plays are constantly pirated and performed in inaccurate versions that tarnish the bard's legacy. Henry Condell and John Heminges, Shakespeare's friends and actors in the Kings Men, are determined to make sure true versions of the plays survive by compiling the First Folio, recapturing the words that shaped their lives. Guided by a sense of genuine loyalty, admiration, and what really matters in life, this determined lot will beg, borrow, and steal to make sure Shakespeare's Folio survives. THE BOOK OF WILLunequivocally announces Gunderson as a playwright with whom to be reckoned. It is, quite frankly, one of the best plays I have ever seen. It will bring tears of both laughter and sorrow to all but the most jaded audience members eyes. It is, in a word, a triumph. Boulder Weekly (CO).Directed by Lara Toner Haddock. Starring Huck Huckaby, Ben Wolfe, Joey Banks, Marie Fahlgren, Boni Hester, Stephen Mercantel, Toby Minor, Tom Parker, Cyndi Williams, and Owen Ziegle.
