| | Synopsis
|
In this exuberant comedy and original revision of Shakespeare's
Othello and Romeo and Juliet — Constance Ledbelly, a drab and dusty
academic, deciphers a cryptic manuscript she believes to be the
original source for the tragedies, and is transported into the plays
themselves. She visits Juliet and Desdemona, has a hand in saving
them, and finds out what these women are about. In true Shakespearean
spirit, Constance plunders the plays and creates something new, all
the while engaging in a personal voyage of self-discovery. With an
abundance of twists, fights, dances, seductions, and wild surprises,
the play is an absolute joy of theatricality.
