Arden of Faversham

Jul. 19 - Aug. 12, 2018
Thursdays-Sundays
For curses are like arrows shot upright, which, falling down, light on the shooter's head. - XIII
This Tudor true-crime saga, by the young Shakespeare and unknown collaborators, portrays domestic life as a tangle of seduction, betrayal, and greed. The prosperous Thomas Arden is despondent, vexed by the suspicion that his wife, Alice, has been unfaithful. His doubts prove the least of his problems as Alice and her lover, Mosby, plot to have Arden murdered. Thanks to their incompetent accomplices, the path to bloodshed leads to hilarious black comedy as well as spine-chilling suspense. The Winedale premiere of a neglected masterpiece of domestic tragedy, newly added to the Shakespearean canon.
