LOCATION:Vancouver Island University - Malaspina Theatre (Bldg. 310) :: 900 Fifth Street Nanaimo, V9R 5S5
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p>The curtain has come down after the Lord Chamberlain&rsquo;s Men&rsquo;s inaugural performance of Henry V at the Globe Theatre; but instead of enjoying the applause, playwright William Shakespeare has to fend off an embittered actor and avoid a lawyer scheming for fame and fortune.</p>=0D=0A=
<p>When a costumer is bitten by a plague-ridden madman, and Queen Elizabeth I herself arrives at the theatre seeking shelter from an infectious disease running rampant in the medieval city streets, life in the playhouse takes a turn for the worse.</p>=0D=0A=
<p>As the deadly affliction spreads through London, the Globe is quarantined and the survivors within must fight for their lives&hellip;</p>=0D=0A=
<p>John Heimbuch&rsquo;s combination of history and horror is a theatrical masterpiece, complete with wayward clowns, quarreling advisers, bite after bite of monstrous adventure and scholarly nods to Shakespearean tragedies.</p>=0D=0A=
<p>Will art and science be sacrificed as the relentless horde of shambling zombies overtakes the stage?</p>=0D=0A=
<p>Not before hearts are broken and desperate rescue missions are plotted in this action-packed mash-up with blood and gore a-plenty.</p>
