Measure for Measure

By William Shakespeare

Shakespeare's electrifying exploration of the arrogance of power hovers tantalizingly between comedy and tragedy. Measure stares unblinklingly into the way we confuse lust and love, goodness and self-righteousness; and it manages an unforgettably ironic look at "the fire down below" with a congregation of murderers, pimps, whores, nuns, and dukes.

This production closed on December 6 at the Blackfriars Playhouse. But you can still buy tickets for our other shows.
