Naked Shakes Solo Festival - All the Devils Are Here: How Shakespeare Invented the Villain
Thursday, November 5, 2020, 12:30PM-2:00PM (VIA ZOOM)
Presented by the Department of Theater and Dance.
In this dazzling exploration of Shakespeare’s two-decade-long investigation of Evil with Tony Award nominee Patrick Page, the star of Broadway’s Hadestown brilliantly enacts many of the Bard’s greatest villains, from Richard III to Prospero. Moving swiftly and chronologically, Page traces the evolution of Shakespeare’s malefactors from the mere two-dimensional to the psychologically complex characters that heralded the modern psychopath. Hell is empty and all the devils are here.
Part of the Naked Shakes Solo Festival.
