About the show

Geoffrey Tennant is the passionate but unstable artistic director of the New Burbage Theatre Festival. Haunted by the ghost of his predecessor, he struggles to realize his creative vision while handling touchy actors, a jittery general manager, a pretentious guest director and his own tempestuous romance with the festival’s leading lady The backstage bedlam mirrors the onstage angst as Geoffrey directs three of Shakespeare’s masterpieces — Hamlet, Macbeth and King Lear — one in each season.
