Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra
18 October @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm
‘Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety’
The story of the passionate love affair between two powerful rulers – Cleopatra , queen of Egypt, and Mark Antony, of Rome – is full of comedy and witty banter, yet also a history play wrapped round a tragic romance, examining the choices between the personal and the political.
This fast-paced version, adapted and directed by Jacky Crosher for Shakespeare Live, spins a new twist on this less-performed play. An ensemble cast unpick the plot and text using both modern and original language. A glorious, magical re-working of this wonderful play.
At the Rondo Theatre in Bath at 8pm on Saturday 18th October, together with other venues in Wiltshire and Somerset.
