About the musical Shakespeareland
Imagine if one day the characters in Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet and other Shakespearean works stepped out of the original and gained free will. The musical Shakespeareland stems from a witty and witty imagination. By creating an encounter between the 'Shakespeare', who yearns for the approval of critics and audiences, and his characters, a warm and delightful journey is undertaken to find the missing pieces.
The original version of Shakespeareland premiered on 2 March 2021 and was once described by Korean netizens as "a musical that will live on in your memory even when the lights go out" and "the most unburdensome comedy I've seen so far". The Chinese version of the show is another collaboration between Culture Square and Korean gold medalist director Kim Duk-yon, following the musicals "Maybe a Happy Ending" and "Star Messenger". On the one hand, it continues Culture Square's "small but beautiful" style of drama selection, and on the other hand, it is also the first time that the four protagonists rely on a warm core expression through the means of comedy, expressing the value of "life is precious because it is up to me" by describing the process of finding their own paradise. The play is also the first to rely on the warmth of its core expression.

关于音乐剧《莎翁乐园》
设想一下，如果有一天，《哈姆雷特》《罗密欧与朱丽叶》等等莎士比亚作品中的人物跳出了原著，获得了自由意志，他们会如何？音乐剧《莎翁乐园》源于一种诙谐而机智的想象力。通过塑造渴望获得评论家和观众认可的“莎士比亚”与笔下人物的相遇，展开了一段温暖而愉快地寻找丢失碎片的旅程。
音乐剧《莎翁乐园》原版首演于2021年3月2日，一度被韩国网友评价为“灯光熄灭也会一直活在回忆里的音乐剧”“迄今为止看过最没有负担的喜剧”。而中文版则是继音乐剧《也许美好结局》《星际信使》之后，文化广场与韩国金牌导演金动渊又一合作作品。一方面延续了文化广场“小而美”的选剧风格，另一方面也是首次借助喜剧的手段，依靠温暖的核心表达，通过描述四个主角寻找各自乐园的过程，表达了“人生由我，所以珍贵”的价值观。
