Something Rotten!

Aug 15
- Sep 7, 2025
Lohrey Theatre

Outrageous and Hilarious. Set in 1590, Nick and Nigel Bottom set out to write the world’s very first musical, but are stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star known as “The Bard.” Amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self… and all that jazz. This show is more fun than you can shake a shtick at!

Book by Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Farrell, Music and Lyrics by Wayne Kirkpatrick and Karey Kirkpatrick / Director and Choreographer Whitney Branan* / Music Director Jeffery Brewer *Member of the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society
