Antony and Cleopatra - A Dream of Passion
Original play by William Shakespeare
Directed and Conceived by Robert Chevara.
Produced by Jonny Woo in association with The Divine
Antony - William McGeough. Cleopatra - Jonny Woo. Charmian - Alexis Gregory. Donatella - Jonathan Blake.
A timely adaptation of Shakespeare’s epic love story, Antony and Cleopatra, Robert Chevara presents a radical, queer re-staging of the classic with a small, all gay male cast, placing in sharp relief the relationship of our two protagonists.
‘They are lovers who live in a constant public gaze. Lit by lightening’
The setting is a club, possibly Berghain in Berlin, where the hours disappear and the lovers cling together, unable to part. Fuelled by love, lust and drugs .
Dizzying and electrifying. Queer club culture with Shakespeare's unmatched poetic verse at its throbbing heart.
Running time approximately 70 minutes
