Good day and good morrow fair lords and ladies;
The MYP beseeches you to attend their amendable performance of Billy the Bard’s Merchant of Venice, colloquially retitled The Merchant of Manhattan.
In fair New York we lay our scene; 6 suitors strive to win the hand of the divine socialite: Portia. One suitor, Bassanio, is willing to risk all his good friend and cousin Antonio has (including a pound of his noble flesh) to win this lady’s hand. Will such a gamble and risk pay off, or will Bassanio wind up wifeless, friendless and ultimately alone?
To discover the answer to these harrowing questions, join us on Tuesday March 1st. To buy passage into the production we respectfully request a small donation of two gold coins (or a toonie) to help fund the Arts program. We will also be holding a bake sale to provide some delectable delights and light refreshments while you watch.
These festivities shall commence at 6:00pm. For now I shall retire, but I do anticipate your presence. God keep you!
Ms. Lopez
