AN ACTOR: PERFORMS
EAS Performs: A WINTERS TALE
Audition Information: Self Tape Submissions (cut off date: Monday 27th Jan)
The court of Sicily is full of joy, laughter, music, dance - at least, it usually is. But it only takes one person having a spectacularly bad trip to bring a party down, particularly when that person is the host. Leontes is lashing out at everyone around him, and it’s time to move the action elsewhere - to Bohemia, a land of pastoral frolicking, hidden identities, and… bears. Lots of bears. More bears than Shakespeare could ever have anticipated.
Combining Shakespeare’s text with new material from award-winning playwright Jen McGregor, A Winter’s Tale: Pursued By a Bear turns the original play into a queer fairytale about love, trust, and bewaring of bears in unexpected places.
Directed by Adam Butler
