Summary
Shakespeare's great women and three extraordinary men meet and perform a totally contemporary play. Kate and Petruchio, Romeo and Juliet, daring Henry V, plus Lady Macbeth and Cleopatra, combine to produce a mad and merry, totally irreverent but particularly apt, tribute to the greatest writer of all! A triumph of irony in the iambic - yet warm of heart. Forsooth play on!
