Saturday 23 February 2013
ArtsEmerson presented The Shakespearean Jazz Show, part of the The Next Thing (TNT) Festival livestreamed on the global, commons-based peer-produced HowlRound TV network at howlround.tv on Saturday 23 February at 7:45 p.m. PST (San Francisco) / 9:45 p.m. CST (Chicago) / 10:45 p.m. EST (Boston).
ABOUT THE SHOW The Shakespearean Jazz Show is a Boston-born project, created by active students attending Emerson College and Berklee College of Music. The production reinvigorates and recontextualizes Shakespearean performance in a new, energetic, innovative way. The Nine Worthies is the name of the band (inspired from Shakespeare’s Love’s Labor’s Lost) and the ensemble collaboratively works together to provide an unforgettable parade of Shakespearean sonnets, songs and scenes composed to original New Orleans-style jazz. The loose, improvisatory nature of jazz frees the Shakespearean text in a way that allows the feeling and intent of the words to be expressed in a completely new way.

Wish I'd seen this! HowlRound sent the eblast a few hours after the stream ended. Are there still recordings available online?
Love,
A big Shakespeare fan. :)
I don't think they have videos up from Saturday's performance but here's a clip of the company performing in New Orleans: http://www.youtube.com/watc...
