William Shakespeare's The Empire Striketh Back

Experience Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back reimagined as a play in the style of William Shakespeare. Ian Doescher takes the film script and transforms it into verse, expertly retelling the fifth part of this series. 

"Many a fortnight have passed since the destruction of the Death Star. Young Luke Skywalker and his friends have taken refuge on the ice planet of Hoth, where the evil Darth Vader has hatched a cold-blooded plan to capture them. Only with the help of a little green Jedi Master—and a swaggering rascal named Lando Calrissian—can our heroes escape the Empire's wrath. And only then will Lord Vader learn how sharper than a tauntaun's tooth it is to have a Jedi child."
