Theatre: The Revenger’s Tragedy
Now it’s official: Damian O’Hare will be back on stage this spring, in
THE REVENGER’S TRAGEDY
as Hippolito
Director: Jonathan Moore
A tale of vengeance, violence and lust in the finest traditions of Jacobean tragedy. As he holds the skull of his beloved – who rejected the licentious old Duke’s advances and so was poisoned – Vindice plots the Duke’s grotesque murder. But in a court where adultery, rape and incest are the norm, his vengeance does not stop there. An orgy of ritualistic, even playful, bloodletting follows.
