Acting Shakespeare: A One-Man Musical is an official revival of Sir Ian McKellen’s legendary solo show, created with his personal blessing and reimagined for contemporary audiences through music, humor, and an American lens. Performed by Kamran Saliani, Actor-Manager and Founder of Irvington Shakespeare Company, this 90-minute solo performance blends Shakespeare’s most powerful scenes and soliloquies with storytelling, history, and original musical parodies inspired by Bo Burnham, alongside excerpts from James Shapiro’s Shakespeare in a Divided America.
