Mary Jane Schaefer, a member of TAW since 2009, announces the appearance of one of her three plays about Shakespeare at the upcoming Edinburgh Fringe Festival this August. All three were developed by Mark S. Graham, director, and performed by actors from TAW as staged readings in NYC, at The Players Club and at The National Arts Club. The current play, Upstart! Shakespeare's Rebel Daughter Judith, has been rewritten as an 80-minute version of the earlier play about Judith, and is being directed in the UK by Alexandra Spencer-Jones.
