This imaginative adaptation asks the question you've always wanted an answer to: "What if Shakespeare had written Pulp Fiction?" Set in Elizabethan England, Pulp Shakespeare weaves the story of a pair of murderous hit men, their boss's alluring wife and a desperate knight, all brought to life by a cast of acclaimed Los Angeles Shakespearean actors. Clever and hysterical, this production is the work of Her Majesty's Secret Players and allows audiences to experience the Bard on a whole new level.

Go see the movie Pulp Fiction before seeing the play as that will make it easier to follow. It was very clever and funny

This show was absolutely brilliant! It was very well adapted to the Shakespearean voice. Great attention to detail through the entire production and excellent performances by the entire cast! The reprise of the Christopher Walken role left me in tears it was so funny.
