    Fantasia 2020: Shakespeare's Shitstorm in World Premiere

    25 years after Tromeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare's The Tempest becomes: #ShakespearesShitstorm a supreme satire with Kaufman sauce of this best of worlds, intolerant of different opinions, allergic to micro-aggressions and complaining excessively. Here comes back our dear uncle Lloyd and his gang of Tromanarchists, who give a well-deserved finger of honour to the ambient hyper-hypocrisy, and who laughs in the face of the United States of Decency.
