What if William Shakespeare had written Ghostbusters? In this reimagining of the classic 1984 film, author Jordan Monsell uses iambic pantameter, period prose, and historical engravings to weave a tale fit for the Bard. Who wilt thou call?

While staying true to the original story, the Shakespearean version of Ghostbusters manages to put it into an earlier form and make it work. The language is, at times, borrowed, adapted, or combined from Shakespeare's other works in a manner that is appropriate and funny. May he go on to tell the second film as well.Product details

Ministers of Grace The Unauthorized Shakespearean Parody of Ghostbusters Jordan Monsell 9781544804781 Books Reviews
This is not a play. This is someone that wrote something, never performed it and now wants you to try to and fall on your face. What really irks me is that he would put this out there without taking the Pepsi challenge himself. This would not only be a nightmare to perform it would be an embarrassment.
At one point the one stage reading that this thing had was up on youtube (it was atrocious). It has since been replaced with a 2 min "select scenes" video.
BOTTOM LINE If you collect Ghostbusters gear, this might be cool. If you think you're going to put this on and entertain people - you're not going to.
Shame on Jordan Monsell, especially as someone that comes from a theatre background. You don't ever put a play out there for public consumption that hasn't been workshopped. What a waste of a good idea.
2 things that I love that I would not expect to go together.
Awesome adaptation. Would love to see a live performance. If you're a fan of the Bard or the original film, pick this up!
Fantastic read!
Bought this for my boyfriend. He laughed so much while reading! Love the addition of drawings/sketches.
I enjoyed the Star Wars/Shakespeare mash up a lot, I read the first 3, then I saw it was becoming a trend where a lot of stories were getting the mash up, and I kind of got tired of it. Then I saw Ghostbusters had one. Ghostbusters being my favorite movie I had to check this out. And to be honest, totally worth it. I enjoyed every second of it and it's my favorite Shakespearean parody to date.
Fans of Ghostbusters and Shakespeare alike will dote upon this witty and engaging adaptation of Reitman and Aykroyd's masterpiece. In faith, 'tis sooth that William himself would approve... or at least, his ghost would. Though an admittedly short read, this jewel of a book was well worth the price of admission. Take the plunge and enjoy an hour or so of much-needed belly laughter, especially for those well-versed enough with The Bard's work to tease out all the allusions and quotations. By any measure, 'twill be time well spent. Avaunt!
