After last years success with "Lysistrate" ÖGs theatregroup is back again!

We are now proud to present to you the play:

A new hope for William Shakespeare!

Based on the book "William Shakespeare's Star Wars" by Ian Doescher.

This year it’s 400 years since William Shakespeare died. It’s also a year when we recently witnessed a brand new Star Wars movie and have one other in the making. Now what better way to celebrate both of these things than by combining them!

In 2013 the star wars nerd and Shakespeare nerd Ian Doescher sat down and rewrote the epic Star wars movie "a new hope" into a play suitably for theatre and with classical Shakespearian dialogues. ÖGs theatre group is now immensely proud to present our own version of that. As an audience you will experience breathtaking lightsable duels and x-wing battles as well as classical Shakespearian monologues complete with 1600-hundred English!

This will be an unforgetfull experience no matter if you’re a Star Wars fan or a Shakespearian fan (or both). It is also one of the first times a student nation produces a theatre or spex entirely in English so even our many foreign students in the city can enjoy it!

Three shows on the 25th, 26th and 27th of May!

Tickets will be available online from the 11th of May at midday.
