The AFTLS company ethos and mission is simplicity at its finest. Five actors take the stage, with

minimal props and costumes, and direct themselves in a performance of a complete

Shakespeare play, with each actor portraying multiple roles. The goal: to interpret Shakespeare’s

text as a blueprint for a performance — and as a gateway to its wide-ranging, transformative

poetry.
