Dark Comedy
The Lady Doth Protest
A darkly comic, present-day battle of wits, of the sexes, and of Shakespearean bonafides. The Fool, a self-made "scholar," clings to the Bard for relevance, until a stranger refuses to stay polite and the room tips into an absurd cage match. In 2026, when whose voice is heard is still a question, this show makes the classics feel urgent and hilariously combustible. Fast, physical and sharp. Come for the comedy, stay for the moment you realise you’re part of the argument. When the text is stripped bare, what humanity is left glowing beneath?
