"Why wouldn't someone want to do Han Solo in iambic pentameter?"



Uhh, because Han Solo is more a free verse kinda guy?

Writer Ian Doescher released the book "William Shakespeare's Star Wars: Verily, A New Hope!" last year--with the third entry in the trilogy "The Jedi Doth Returns" released earlier this month, and now a stage adaptation has come to bear.

Actor and producer Joe Seibert is behind the new creation, which debuts in New Orleans at the Mid City Theatre on July 28th.

No word on how Chewbacca's howls will be interpreted in an Elizabethan vein.
