Putting A New Spin on Shakespeare Since 2018


About

An ongoing Shakespeare cabaret at The Roguelike Tavern that takes our conceptions of Shakespeare and type casting, then cuts the fat and throws it in a blender. What's the play? Who will play who? Join us to find out!

The Players

Lindsay Zana

Lex Agolsove
Pronouns: she/her/hers
@clanlextine
As a wee child, Lex often forced her family to watch her perform silly little skits, so she’s thrilled that now sometimes people pay her to do it! Outside of acting, improv, and creating, she’s a big fan of causing board game chaos, general tomfoolery, and procrastinating literally anything - especially writing bios.

James Ferrero - Creator/Producer
Pronouns: He/Him
IG/Twitter: @thereeljferrero
James is an actor, producer, and sound designer. He started Shakes on the Rocks as a way for actors to defy typecasting in a town that thrives on just that. And to have a fun time doing it. You can usually find him floating around the back, in the booth, or quizzing guests in our trivia section. He wants to give a special shout-out to his producing team and cast, all of whom help make this show a reality. Go Slugs! www.james-ferrero.com

Zoo Holmström - Producer/Actor
Pronouns: They/Them
IG: @zooholmstrom Twitter: @zooscluez
Zoo loves three things: Shakespeare, drinking, and community. Well, they love a lot more than that, but those are the three that are most important to Shakes on the Rocks. While they are currently living in Vermont working at a gin distillery, they are a long-time Shaker and can’t wait to get back on stage. For now, they’re enjoying producing virtually from the Green Mountain state and daydreaming about one day opening their own bar to host as much drunken Shakespeare as possible.
