Spectacle : Oh shocking Shakespeare

What if Shakespeare wasn’t who we think he is?

‘O Romeo, why must you be Romeo?’ The line is famous. But what do we really know about its author? With humour and imagination, the Möbius-Band theatre company revisits Shakespeare’s work and has fun shifting its reference points.

Part theatre, part detective story, the production explores a hypothesis that is as unsettling as it is delightful: what if his plays had been written by a woman?

A playful and mischievous production, offering a fresh take on Shakespeare.
