Now I Am Alone
T1203151617
A portrait of Shakespeare's outsiders. Shakespeare's outsiders gather in one play. The exiled king, the fool, the refugee, the social outcast - they all have something to say about Shakespeare's views of society and human nature. The show tells the story of these people and proffers up their unique viewpoint on life, through humour, irony and anguish. Among the characters are the famous: Richard II and III, Macbeth, Jacques and Shylock, and the less known and performed: Timon of Athens, Launce, The Duchess of Gloucester, and a rarely performed speech from Sir Thomas More about immigration. The acclaimed director Nick Hutchison (UK) directs this original take on the Bard's plays, performed by actor Dori Engel (Israel). The collaboration between the two artists led to a cross cultural and fresh approach to the texts that will speak to so many people around the world.
