Antony & Cleopatra : Attic Door Productions
Thurs 20th, Fri 21st, Sat 22nd July 2017 - 7.30pm
Morecambe Winter Gardens
The opulence of Egypt and the power struggles of Rome are transported into the faded decadence of forties film noir with Attic Door’s brand new production of Shakespeare’s tale of Lust and Power : Antony & Cleopatra.
A new twist is brought to the tale as Attic Door turns the Bard’s greatest tragedy on its head, as Antony, a young and power hungry lieutenant in Caesar’s mob, is hypnotised by the decadence of Cleopatra’s old gangland money. Lust makes way for love as alliances are formed and broken and betrayal can come on the flip of a dime. As the struggle for supremacy rages between continents, it becomes slowly apparent that power is the most potent aphrodisiac of them all, and love is never all conquering.
Direct from their acclaimed run of The Two Gentlemen of Verona at Lancaster Castle the Attic Door team once again bring a new accessible angle to Shakespeare’s work, bringing the Winter Gardens to life as the magnificent palaces of Egypt and the seedy warehouses of Rome in this exciting new site specific production
The production runs from 20th – 22nd July at Morecambe Winter Gardens.
Tickets are priced at £10/£8 and can be purchased from www.bardbythebeach.co.uk
