Synopsis: | A comedy set on the wide street of Cheapside, London in Lent in the early 1600's it has often been described as one of the funniest satirical city plays, with its rambunctious and wild cast of Lord, Ladies, villains, cheats and whores. The play interweaves a series of plots and extraordinary set pieces to mercilessly mock the inability of learning or religion to overcome the old appeal of sex and money | |||||

Synopsis: | This mesmerizing Jacobean thriller, written a few years after Hamlet, is a searing examination of humankinds social need for justice and our animal desire for vengeance. Vindice, the Revenger, sets off a chain reaction of havoc in a corrupt and decadent Venice, which exposes outrageous indulgences and government hypocrisy, and ends in a coup de theātre massacre of epic proportions. Part black comedy, part social satire, the play is a gleefully macabre plot-twisting blender full of Shakespeares greatest hits. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Thomas Middleton | |||||
Synopsis: | Thomas Middleton's rarely performed masterwork of Jacobean juiciness, Women Beware Women, a scathing social satire of sexual politics, with a spectacular tragicomic denouement, continues Red Bull Theater's exploration of the seldom-seen classics of Shakespeare and his contemporaries. Women Beware Women speaks with a shockingly contemporary voice about sexual politics and women's rights, even as it is a playful parody of serious sexual games, ultimately showing a society imploding under the pressure of sexual manipulation, victimization, and gender inequality | |||||
