Screwed to the Sticking Place

August 2006: Minnesota Fringe Festival, Xperimental Theater, Minneapolis, MN

Playwright: William Shakespeare and the Company
Created by: Sasha Walloch and the Company

Lady MacBeth hires Juliet's displaced nurse, Ophelia relives her death with Desdemona, and Lady Mortimer still has no lines.  Will a bawdy dance and a broken lightbulb send them over the edge?  Ask Cordelia! 

A company created piece that celebrated Shakespeare's women and translated their stories into modern situations while utilizing the bard's own words. Using physical theatre methods, Sasha Walloch guided the cast in creating a moving piece that explored the characters more deeply than they ever were before.
