Shakespeare-in-the-Park, until August 11, 2019 LiveEvents July 22, 2019 1237 The Conseil des Arts de Montréal and Repercussion Theatre present Shakespeare-in-the-Park 2019 Measure for Measure Touring parks until August 11th, 2019 Power. Corruption. Morality and justice. Surviving in a gritty world without getting your hands dirty isn’t easy. Written over 400 years ago, Shakespeare’s dark comedy might just as easily have been ripped from today’s headlines. With a company of ten outstanding actors and a striking design, this funny and provocative show will have audiences talking all the way home from the park. “We don’t just present Shakespeare’s plays – we enter into dialogue with them. Just as William Shakespeare used the theatre as a way to ‘hold a mirror up to nature’, we seek to explore the major issues of our time through the work we create. So why Shakespeare? He asks some deeply important questions in sublimely subtle ways. His intelligence, humanity and imagination are endless sources of inspiration. As a creative partner, he’s without equal.” – Amanda Kellock | Artistic Director Free Admission (Freewill Donations Gladly Accepted) To check dates, locations and any possible rain cancellations, visit: www.repercussiontheatre.com Related
