About this Event
King Cymbeline rules with an iron fist over the British territory of the Roman Empire. His only daughter Imogen, dismayed by his cruelty, refuses her responsibility to continue the bloodline by marrying royalty, choosing instead to marry the low-born Posthumus for love. Their union sets off an incredible series of events that ultimately lead to the birth of independent Britain.
This production, set against the backdrop of the synthwave of the late 1980s, explores the ideas of love, jealousy, nationalism, identity and sacrifice in a fast-paced, irreverent take on one of Shakespeare’s lesser-known but thoroughly delightful comedies.
