The Revenger's Tragedy

About

Friday 28 October - Saturday 12 November 2016

Imagine a world without justice, where the rich and powerful do what they like and get away with murder. The Revenger’s Tragedy takes us behind the scenes in this world of glamour, riches and celebrity, into a seedy underworld of sex, drugs and rock and roll.

Entering this lawless world, Vindice thirsts for justice and plans a dazzling revenge for the murder of his sweetheart. As he is drawn further and further into the dark heart of this group, is he in danger of becoming just as bad as the amoral people he despises?

Fast-paced and irreverent, The Revenger’s Tragedy is a black comedy – the Tarantino version of Hamlet. This bold new production, brought to you by the same team behind The Duchess of Malfi, brings a contemporary edge to a timeless tale of trying to be good in a very bad world.
