Measure for Measure

After their successful tour of Italy, Quite Right Theatre return to Sheffield for 3 days only with their compelling production of Shakespeare's Measure for Measure.

Welcome to dystopian Vienna, a city threatened by disease and disorder, where pimps speak reason and politicians breed fear.
The Duke plots to restore his city but it may come at a severe cost.

When the Duke gives over power to Angelo, a new tyrannical regime strangles Vienna and with immediate effect sentences Claudio to death, his crime: loving another man. The only person who can save Claudio is his sister, Isabella, a nun. In order to save him however, Isabella must confront the sinful demands of Angelo, forcing the old Duke disguised as a kindly friar to plot Angelo's downfall.

So make sure to get down to Moor Theatre Delicatessen this December for a glimpse of this pulsating retelling of Shakespeare's classic Problem Play using high-octane physical sequences, enchanting music & an enormously talented cast.
