“Nominated for 10 Tony Awards! Set in the 1590’s, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of a ‘Renaissance Rockstar.’ When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing and acting at the same time, they set out to write the world’s first MUSICAL! Critics and audiences alike went wild for SOMETHING ROTTEN, an outrageous, crowd-pleasing musical farce that received several Best Musical nominations and was hailed by Time Out New York as, ‘the funniest musical comedy in at least 400 years.’”
Ben plays the role of Nigel Bottom, the sensitive lovelorn poet, in the Washington, D.C.-area premiere of this hilarious show! Filled with heart, toe-tapping musical numbers and a plethora of references to musical theater and the works of William Shakespeare, this is one you won’t want to miss!
