What You Will
"A virtual site-specific adventure across the globe
Every visitor may choose which character to visit with, and visit with all characters, as many times as they wish.
A step towards a virtual theatrical promenade..."
Run-time 45mins

The What You Will project came out of weeks of meetings and discussions on how an ensemble might collaborate at distance, irrespective of lockdown.
It looks to ask, What is Theatre when audience and performers can’t breathe the same air, or listen to a shared space...?

What might a theatrical experience in the digital world look and feel like?
What else can the Digital Arts offer?
And how might Shakespeare sit in this viral, distant, connected world?

Through the fatigue and the struggles of these months, we've also been asking,
How does an international ensemble work & play together without tremendous financial or climate strain?
Should we try to create while the world is raging?
And also, How can we not?

What You Will is a response to 2020,
an open offer of congregation and interaction,
an hour’s thoughtful entertainment for these difficult times, as we all find ourselves together, alone -- so much shared, from so far away.

Feel so very lucky to be able to say these words, after all this time.
So very grateful to the Shakespeare Ensemble for all their hard work, all the pushing through when the energy was out, all the joy full creativity they've poured into #WhatYouWill
Immensely proud.

The 'sets' were so riveting, and the 'story' was so enticing and the characters were bewitching and beguiling!

“Although it took some time to get used to the entirely new attempt, I was captivated by the characters. Traditionally, a theatregoer is passive, but here they are expected to be active. This is revolutionary in the history of theatre and the digital arts.”
