SUMMARY:The Turn of the Screw @ Ott & Hunter
DESCRIPTION:Stay tuned to ISF in October for Halloween Season Spookiness! \nIsland Shakespeare Fest returns for its second season of spooky fun with another thrilling production of “The Turn of the Screw” by Henry James\, adapted for the stage by Jeffrey Hatcher and directed by Erin Murray. Performances will travel all over the island from Oct. 23-28 to Beaver Tales Coffee and Kingfisher Bookstore in Coupeville\, to the Tipsy Jellyfish and Whidbey Playhouse in Oak Harbor and wrap up at Ott & Hunter Winery in Langley\, Oct. 27 and 28. (Check our website for schedule details:  www.islandshakespearefest.org). \nBased on the 1898 provocative tale of suspense\, horror and repressed sexuality\, this adaptation gives the famous story yet another turn of its own. A young governess journeys to a lonely English manor house to care for two recently orphaned children. But she is not their first governess. Her predecessor\, Miss Jessel\, drowned herself when she became pregnant by the sadistic valet\, Peter Quint\, who was himself found dead soon after under mysterious circumstances. Now the new governess has begun to see the specters of Quint and Jessel haunting the children\, and she must find a way to stop the fiends before it is too late! But one frightening question tortures the would-be heroine: Are the ghosts real\, or are they the product of her own fevered imagination? (Recommended for ages 12+) \nTickets: $40\, $25\, $15; Pay-What-You-Will at the door\, though we do expect to sell out.

SUMMARY:Island Shakespeare Festival
DESCRIPTION:Island Shakespeare Fest Opens its 16th Season July 18!\nThis season\, fearless women defy the status quo\, rewrite the rules\, and prove that love and selfhood are not a choice—they’re a revolution.\n“Much Ado About Nothing”By: William Shakespeare\, Directed by: Chad “Dex” Kinsman\nEvent Date(s): July 18 – Aug. 31 \nIn Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing\,” words are weapons and wit is a shield. Beatrice refuses to be anything but fiercely independent—until she finds herself caught in a battle of the heart with the equally sharp-tongued Benedick. Meanwhile\, her cousin Hero’s gentle strength is tested by a world obsessed with female purity—making a whole lot of “ado” over nothing. Shakespeare’s “Much Ado” is a sparkling comedy of deception\, honor\, and unexpected love\, where women must carve their own paths amid a society eager to define them. \n“Anima (or Her Soul)” By: Amelia Pincherle Rosselli\, Directed by: Emily Lyon\nEvent Dates: July 26 – Aug 30\nOnce again\, we partner with Expand the Canon to bring a brilliant yet lesser-known classic to our audience’s attention. The art world is rarely considered the intersection of passion and propriety. But In Amelia Roselli’s “Anima” (translated to English as “Her Soul”)\, painter Olga de Velaris finds herself at just that crossroads\, testing the limits of how much she can express. In 1890’s Rome\, she is surrounded by women who must navigate the tightrope of reputation\, desire\, and survival. “Anima” is a powerful\, rarely staged drama that lays bare the tension between self-determination and the longing for connection\, revealing that love—when truly seen—does not have to mean surrender. Step into this quirky\, disarming\, and award-winning play for an examination of who we’re really seeking. \nIsland Shakespeare Festival\, 5476 Maxwelton Road\, Langley WA\nPrice: Pay What You Will\, or reserve a seat for $36\nGet Tickets Here:\nhttps://www.ticketsource.com/island-shakespeare-festival

SUMMARY:Island Shakespeare Festival
DESCRIPTION:Island Shakespeare Fest Opens its 16th Season July 18!\nThis season\, fearless women defy the status quo\, rewrite the rules\, and prove that love and selfhood are not a choice—they’re a revolution.\n“Much Ado About Nothing”By: William Shakespeare\, Directed by: Chad “Dex” Kinsman\nEvent Date(s): July 18 – Aug. 31 \nIn Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing\,” words are weapons and wit is a shield. Beatrice refuses to be anything but fiercely independent—until she finds herself caught in a battle of the heart with the equally sharp-tongued Benedick. Meanwhile\, her cousin Hero’s gentle strength is tested by a world obsessed with female purity—making a whole lot of “ado” over nothing. Shakespeare’s “Much Ado” is a sparkling comedy of deception\, honor\, and unexpected love\, where women must carve their own paths amid a society eager to define them. \n“Anima (or Her Soul)” By: Amelia Pincherle Rosselli\, Directed by: Emily Lyon\nEvent Dates: July 26 – Aug 30\nOnce again\, we partner with Expand the Canon to bring a brilliant yet lesser-known classic to our audience’s attention. The art world is rarely considered the intersection of passion and propriety. But In Amelia Roselli’s “Anima” (translated to English as “Her Soul”)\, painter Olga de Velaris finds herself at just that crossroads\, testing the limits of how much she can express. In 1890’s Rome\, she is surrounded by women who must navigate the tightrope of reputation\, desire\, and survival. “Anima” is a powerful\, rarely staged drama that lays bare the tension between self-determination and the longing for connection\, revealing that love—when truly seen—does not have to mean surrender. Step into this quirky\, disarming\, and award-winning play for an examination of who we’re really seeking. \nIsland Shakespeare Festival\, 5476 Maxwelton Road\, Langley WA\nPrice: Pay What You Will\, or reserve a seat for $36\nGet Tickets Here:\nhttps://www.ticketsource.com/island-shakespeare-festival
