TheatreWorks Silicon Valley will end its 50th anniversary season with
the Regional Premiere of Lauren Gunderson’s “The Book of Will,”
directed by TheatreWorks Founding Artistic Director Robert Kelley in
his final show at the helm of the theatre company he founded.
Recognized by American Theatre magazine as one of the most
sought-after playwrights in the country, prolific Bay Area-based
Gunderson, whose “Silent Sky” received a TheatreWorks production
in 2014, writes a love letter to the theatre. In this absorbing,
amusing, fast-paced drama, two of William Shakespeare’s friends
struggle to collect and publish the First Folio, a volume of his
life’s work, following the Bard’s passing. Facing a devious
publisher, a cantankerous competitor, and their own insecurity, the
friends’ journey illuminates a tale of love, loss, and laughter. For
