20 STORIES HIGH PRESENT: WHO THE F–K IS SHAKESPEARE?
18 October - 19 October
Armed with punchy verses, punky attitudes, and whole lotta wit
Following a sell-out run, four of Shakespeare’s (in)famous characters are back for a national tour, and ready to tell their side of the story…
Join them as they blow the dust off the classics to stage a multi-art form political occupation of stories steeped in racism, patriarchy and violence.
Armed with punchy verses, punky attitudes, and whole lotta wit – let’s rip out the pages, raise the roof, and rise up!
This show includes creative captioning, integrated audio description and will be BSL interpreted. As part of the integrated audio description, you can expect: Set description, character description and action description, so that nothing will happen on stage that you don’t know about. Costumes have also been designed with an audio element, and you will be able to hear movement and follow some of the action this way.
Who The F*** Is Shakespeare is supported by Unity Theatre, Arts Council England, Paul Hamlyn Foundation, Granada Foundation, The Coutts Foundation, John Ellerman Foundation, and Liverpool City Council.
