The story of a passionate love affair between two powerful rulers is coming to the Merlin Theatre on Saturday 25th October.
Antony and Cleopatra is a tragic romance by William Shakespeare that tells the story of the relationship between the Queen of Egypt, Cleopatra, and Mark Antony of Rome.
Organisers say, “This fast-paced version, adapted and directed by Jacky Crosher for Shakespeare Live, examines the choices between the personal and the political. It is full of comedy and witty banter, yet it is also a history play wrapped around a tragic romance. It spins a new twist on this less-performed play, and an ensemble cast unpicks the plot and text using both modern and original language. A glorious, magical reworking of this wonderful play.”
The show will start at 8pm. To purchase tickets, visit the Merlin Theatre’s website https://shorturl.at/J5SLo
