Come into an erotic underworld of circus and wantonness; of transformation and desire in a world where the boundaries of reality and imagination merge into an arena you might not have expected…
Second year actors and fourth year designers collaborate with costume and technical students to create a spectacular spectacle that explores the darkness and deep urges at the heart of this classic piece of Shakespeare.
Toi Whakaari welcomes one of the UK’s leading Afro-Caribbean theatre practitioners, actress and director Josette Bushell-Mingo (OBE) fresh from the RSC to direct Shakespeare’s tale of love, magic and perception with our next generation of theatre makers.
Josette’s vision of this production is a world of transformation, eroticism and sensuality set in the very controlled yet dangerous area of the circus. Stilt walking, fire breathing, rope walking and acrobatics are currently being mastered by our second year students in preparation for the show.
