What becomes of Shakespeare’s most unforgettable characters after the curtain falls? In this bold and emotionally charged one-woman show, award-winning performer Lexi Wolfe breathes new life into four iconic figures — Lady Macbeth, Portia, Hamlet, and King Hal — each stepping out from the shadows of the Bard to share their untold truths. Drawing on Shakespeare’s language, historical fact, and her own razor-sharp writing, Wolfe conjures a world beyond the plays — a confessional space where past glories, regrets, and secrets rise to the surface. From a guilt-ridden Lady Macbeth reliving her buried grief, to Hamlet reckoning with the consequences of his infamous indecision, After Shakespeare is a haunting, witty, and fiercely human meditation on legacy, identity, and what remains when the curtain falls.
