Without William Shakespeare, we wouldn’t have literary masterpieces like “Romeo and Juliet.” But without Henry Condell and John Heminges, we would have lost half of Shakespeare’s plays forever!
After the death of their friend and mentor, the two actors are determined to compile the First Folio and preserve the words that shaped their lives. They’ll just have to borrow, beg, and band together to get it done. Amidst the noise and color of Elizabethan London, “The Book of Will” finds an unforgettable true story of love, loss, and laughter, and sheds new light on a man you only think you know.

GREENSBORO, N.C. – Greensboro College Theatre presents the musical revue “Starting Here, Starting Now” Friday-Sunday, Jan. 25-27, in the Annie Sellars Jordan Parlor Theatre in Main Building on campus.
Showtimes are 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Jan. 25-26, and 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 26-27. Tickets are $10 and may be reserved by emailing tickets@greensboro.edu.
Using the songs of Richard Maltby, Jr., and David Shire (“Big,” “Baby,” “Closer Than Ever”), “Starting Here, Starting Now” offers a tender-tough inventory of love and the lonesome lack thereof. Made for each other, the wry lyrics of Richard Maltby Jr., combined with David Shire’s buoyant music, forge a fast-moving, ingratiating look at how love can go right, wrong or nowhere.
This bold, extroverted journey takes a winsome cast of three through the maze of modern relationships with its heart firmly on its sleeve. As with all of Maltby and Shire’s work, each song is an impeccably crafted story – original, engaging, bursting with character and showcasing the versatility and charisma of its performer.

GREENSBORO, N.C. – Tony Sportiello ’80, artistic director of Algonquin Theater Productions, is leading the company in producing two simultaneous versions of a new musical in 2019, one in New York in English and the other in Guadalajara, Mexico, in Spanish.
The musical is “The Paparazzi,” by Al Tapper; it already has been produced in Mexico to great acclaim. This new production will be directed in Mexico by legendary director and actor Mauricio Cedeño.
“We have an extraordinary opportunity here,” Sportiello told Broadway World after having flown down to see the Mexican version.
“We need to be collaborating with the artists and musicians from Mexico, not alienating them,” he said. “These are incredibly creative, passionate actors and directors who want the same thing we do — a chance to tell a story and connect with their audience. Lately our country has been taught to fear anyone who does not look like us, does not talk like us. But once you sit down with someone from a foreign land you quickly understand that they are absolutely no different from us.”
Tapper agreed: “The conversation is always about building a wall. A wall between white nationalists and the anti-fascists who believe in equal rights. Also a wall between Mexico and the United States. So what can be done? The answer is ART, which crosses all boundaries and builds bridges between peoples and knocks down any real or perceived walls.”
“The Paparazzi” tells the story of people who work at The New York Beacon, a news outlet far more interested in gossip and Facebook likes than all the news that’s fit to print. Tapper wrote the music and lyrics, Sportiello the book.
Algonquin has a history of partnerships with Cedeño. Their 2010 production of Tapper’s “Sessions” became the first Off Broadway musical to play in Guadalajara, the country’s second-largest city, Broadway World reported. They followed up with the award-winning musical comedy “National Pastime.”
“It is about breaking borders positively, to demonstrate that art cannot depend on politics,” Cedeño told Broadway World. “It is about making the cultural hearts of two countries … join a single rhythm and make history, to open roads for both cities. I hope this is the beginning of a gap that many artists from the USA and Mexico can successfully cross.”
Sportiello has been artistic director of Algonquin Theater Productions since 2004. Previously he had worked as a television supervisor and video and film editor with WGNO-TV and Bloomberg News. He holds a B.A. in Theatre and English from Greensboro College.

Greensboro College Theatre presents two one-act plays, Joseph Wallace’s “Hush Little Celia, Don’t Say a Word” and Pearl and Thatcher Allred’s “To the Lovely Margaret,” 7:30 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, Nov. 29-Dec. 1, and 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 2, in Annie Sellars Jordan Parlor Theatre in Main Building.
“Celia” doesn’t speak. Her teachers want to know why. Her father is angry at her. Her psychologist wants to help her. But fellow student Todd only wants to get close to her. And, through persistence, bad poetry, and a bizarre audition for a production of “Romeo and Juliet,” he does. A gem of a play about love, psychology, and what happens to kids when they go unheard. The honesty of this play and the manner in which the characters have been brought to life will move audience and participants in a most profound way.
In “To the Lovely Margaret,” while attending college, the bookish Margaret is encouraged by her uncle and aunt to live life a little more fully.
All tickets $10 (Greensboro College students, faculty and staff admitted free with Pride Card); tickets can be reserved by calling 336-272-7102, ext. 5242, or emailing tickets@greensboro.edu.

Greensboro College Theatre will offer two performances of Craig Sodaro’s “Just Like Us” and Jonathan Graham’s adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Snow Queen” at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 1, in Mane Stage in the college’s Royce Reynolds Family Student Life Center, 1015 W. Market St. in Greensboro.
Tickets are $5 at the door for adults; students and children will be admitted free.
“Just Like Us,” an important play for young children, teaches a critical lesson about prejudice in a simple, non-preachy manner. The story is told by an old tree, who stands neglected in a park. On one side of the park live the poetry loving Greens. On the other side of the park the Blues reside, where they enjoy playing musical instruments. Sadly, there is nothing but intolerance, fear and hatred between the Greens and the Blues. Why? No one quite remembers, but these ingrained feelings diminish the quality of everybody’s lives, including the poor tree, who is left abandoned in the middle. When a storm brings the aqua and purple Allina to the park, both the Greens and the Blues learn some eye-opening lessons about each other and about life. This thought-provoking piece leaves the audience ready to launch into contemplative discussions and problem solving as children explore their own beliefs about stereotyping and prejudice.
