About
Three college students struggling in a hostile world turn to Dungeons & Dragons, with Hecate as their Dungeon Master, to process their lives and imagine a better one. UB's Mobile Shakespeare Lab brings Shakespeare's parable about ambition and power into direct conversation with contemporary politics and the fight to belong faced by marginalised Americans. It plays the Katharine Cornell Theatre, with a free community performance at the Buffalo and Erie County Public Library's Mason O. Damon Auditorium on November 7, 2026.
