Mark Twain's "Is Shakespeare Dead?" with Keir Cutler, Ph.D.

Mark Twain's hilarious (1909) debunking of the myth that William Shakespeare wrote the works of Shakespeare. Adapted and performed by Keir Cutler, Ph.D. at the 2003 Winnipeg Fringe Festival. Listing the handful of established facts of Shakespeare's life, Twain ridicules the fantasy that an uneducated youth could have wandered into London and, with virtually none of the necessary skills, became the greatest author in English literature. "Is Shakespeare Dead? marshals startling facts into an elegant and often tenacious argument that floats on a current of delicious irony." Montreal Gazette. " a highly entertaining and engrossing 45-minute performance!" EYE Weekly, Toronto. "Magnificently witty performance!" Winnipeg Sun. "Everyone will leave convinced the English-speaking world's greatest playwright is a hoax ... witty and compelling show." Winnipeg Free Press. www.keircutler.com

Shakespeare Authorship / Crackpot to Mainstream

Updated: 25 Oct 2013

Keir Cutler, Ph.D. explains how the Shakespeare Authorship Question is going from a crackpot idea to mainstream thought. Filmed at the 2013 Shakespeare Authorship Question in Toronto. www.keircutler.com Read Diana Price. "If Shakespeare was the writer the title pages proclaim him to be, then there should be evidence of his literary career. He is the only alleged writer of any consequence from the time period who left behind no personal evidence of his career as a professional writer. His biographers must rely instead on posthumous, ambiguous, impersonal and non-literary evidence to make their case." My goal is to have all schools and colleges give both sides to their students.

Keir Cutler performs his hit monologue "Teaching Detroit." ***** (five star rating) "In this extraordinary sequel to last year's Teaching Shakespeare, Keir Cutler revisits his failed, narcissistic, alcoholic college professor on the edge of a nervous breakdown. Today we will explore a work of Shakespearean importance: his own novel, Detroit. ... We laugh because, it's funny, because it's uncomfortable to watch an educated man dig his own grave, and because we're desperate to disavow the parts of us that identify with his failure." Erika Thorkelson, See Magazine, Edmonton
