Some people believe William Shakespeare wrote plays other than those contained in the “First Folio” collection of his works. Whether you believe that or not, getting a chance to see one of these plays performed and judge for yourself is rare indeed. The Ale House Theatre Company will make a case for the historical drama Edmund Ironside, and present a staged reading featuring sixteen actors, including veterans Richard Beaune and Peter Wylde. (Wylde, who performed at the Stratford Festival in the 1950s when it was still in a tent, may very well be able to claim six degrees of separation from the Bard himself.)
