HOUSTON – Laura Frye and Austin Hanna are two of the actors bringing to life the words of the Bard at this year’s Houston Shakespeare Festival!

Houston Life’s Derrick Shore and Lauren Kelly helped them flex out their acting muscles before the free festival kicks off tomorrow at Miller Outdoor Theatre with a fun challenge!

Check out how they team up to give a Shakespearean twist to some ‘90s classic songs.
