Synopsis

Magic Timeis the perfect play for a young ensemble of actors who can handle both contemporary comedy and Shakespeare.  Inspired by the early days of the Steppenwolf Theatre,Magic Timeshows a troupe of actors in a makeshift dressing room in the basement of a church.  Fueled by dedication and youthful enthusiasm, the backstage relationships cleverly mirror the onstage ones as they prepare for a performance ofHamlet.
