Imogen, daughter of Cymbeline, enrages her father by marrying against his will. Lies are then told about Imogen to her husband, Posthumous, and he decides she should die. In an urban world that is as strange, erotic and violent as Shakespeare's ancient Britain, Imogen is forced to re-imagine herself as she fights for the life she deserves and not the one that is being determined for her.T1144602848Imogen is an achingly beautiful story of lovers and families being re-united after violent and hadrrowing separation, and a tale for our times vividly told in his brutally modern production.Producer Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.
