Shakespeare Unplugged

Medvirkende: Ian Burns, Andrew Jeffers & Adam Brix Instruktør: Barry McKenna

This is the continuation of an experiment that director Barry McKenna began with award winning Flammens Muse which sought to strip away the settings, the props and the elaborate costumes leaving just the words and situations of Shakespeare to clothe the actors. Shakespeare Unplugged goes a step further. Not only does it intend to dismantle the fourth wall and invite the audience in but actually places them onstage (a phenomenon not unknown in Shakespeare’s day). It also encourages them to take an active role in the plot, not just as themselves but also as Shakespearean characters.

“And let us, ciphers to this great accompt On your imaginary forces work.”

We hope that by the end of a unique kind of theatre experience the actors and audience will have made a new kind of connection between them and that everyone will leave the theatre with a new appreciation and understanding of one of the world’s best loved playwrights.

It started with the award-winning Flammens Muse… The experiment continues…with Shakespeare Unplugged.
