Colonial Theatre, Part Two

Comedy · 4 actors

TEN MINUTE (4M/1F). In the enthralling play “Colonial Theatre, Part Two,” the Hallam family and their troupe embark on a transformative journey aboard the ship “The Charming Sally.” Determined to bring the wonders of theater to the colonies, Lewis Hallam packs his family and “The Hallam Company” on board, ready to rehearse their contemporary 18th-century repertoire on the ship’s deck during calm seas. As the voyage unfolds, the relationship between Captain Lee, his crew, the rough seas, and the troupe becomes a source of both challenge and inspiration. This engaging tale sets its sights on opening the troupe’s first season in Williamsburg with a performance of William Shakespeare’s “The Merchant of Venice,” celebrating the power of art and the human spirit’s resilience.
