Archives - Antony and Cleopatra

by William Shakespeare

Directed by Simon Turner

Friday 29th April – Saturday 7th May 1994 in the Auditorium

Full of rich and beautiful poetry, this is Shakespeare’s magnificent account of the turbulent and ill-fated affair between history’s most famous middle-aged lovers. It is a story of a contest for the world, overwhelmed by a tempestuous love affair that dragged mighty armies and navies after it like toys. Encompassing the whole of the historic world, it is a wonderful compelling and epic tale of passion, treachery and self-destruction, dominated by the outrageous Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt.
