Club Venice: A Bold Reimagining of Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice

Step into the glitz, glamour, and electric energy of the 1980s as the Duke Ellington School of the Arts Theatre Department presents Club Venice, a bold adaptation of William Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice.

Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1980s nightclub, this imaginative production brings Shakespeare’s timeless themes of love, loyalty, ambition, prejudice, and justice to life through a fresh, contemporary lens.

Featuring the extraordinary talents of Duke Ellington’s emerging young artists, Club Venice promises an unforgettable theatrical experience filled with drama, style, and powerful storytelling.

Performance Dates: December 10–12, 2026 Location: Duke Ellington School of the Arts, Washington, DC
