A fun, eclectic cabaret that combines the beautiful language of Shakespeare with popular songs on the ukulele that everyone can sing to! Mixing Lady Gaga, Radiohead, Bruno Mars and others with the classic monologues, the dUKEss of Rock recreates the Shakespearean world like you've never experienced it before... Surprising combinations of classical texts with modern-day musical hits create moments both touching and amusing.
