approve of in this charming and witty retelling of the 90s teen
comedy, presented as an authentic Shakespearean play written in
iambic pentameter. Cher, the fairest maiden of Beverly Hills, takes

stepbrother Josh. The only solution? Admit that she knoweth
nothing, and beginneth anew. Just in time for the 25th anniverary

Power struggles. Bitter rivalries. Rampant jealousy. Betrayals.
Star-crossed lovers. When you think about it, it s pretty
surprising William Shakespeare DIDN T write Mean Girls. But at
last, readers will be treated to the epic drama and epic hilarity
of the classic teen comedy rendered with the wit, flair, and iambic
pentameter of the Bard. The action unfolds as our heroine Cady
disguises herself to infilitrate the conniving Plastics, falls for
totally-off-limits Aaron, struggles with her allegiance to newfound
friends Damian and Janis, and stirs up age-old vendettas between
the factions of the high school. Bestselling author Ian Doescher
brings his signature Shakespearean wordsmithing to one of the most
revered stories of our time. Fourteen years after its release (feel
old yet?) Mean Girls has become a cultural phenomenon and cult
classic among generations of teen girls and other fans, and is more
than apt for an Elizabethan makeover.

A clever satire that adapts the events of the first two years of
the Trump administration into a Shakespearean tragedy, loosely
modeled on Macbeth, by the best-selling author of the William
Shakespeare s Star Wars and Pop Shakespeare series, and a former
Obama staffer who publishes historical mash-ups under a
well-regarded pseudonym. No one thought MacTrump Lord of MacTrump
Towers, Son of New York would ascend to the highest position in the
kingdom. But with the help of his unhappy but dutiful wife, Lady
MacTrump; his clever daughter, Desdevanka; and his coterie of
advisers led by McBannon and McPriebus, MacTrump is comfortably
ensconced in the Oval Tower of The White Hold as President of the
United States, free to make proclamations to his subjects through
his favorite messenger, McTweet. The O Crats, mourning the loss of
their cherished leader O Bama, won t give up without a fight. They
still remember the disastrous reign of George II and his ill-fated
Crusade, and they can see Putain s dark influence on MacTrump even
if his foolish councilor, Fooliani, denies it. Their greatest hope
is McMueller, who is tasked with investigating the nefarious plot
that empowered MacTrump s rise to the throne. As Desdevanka schemes
to overthrow her father s councilors, and as Donnison and Erikson
trapped in their own buddy comedy prove useless to their father,
MacTrump soon realizes he has no true allies. Will he be able to
hold onto his throne? Only time will tell in this tragicomic tale
of ambition, greed, and ineptitude.
