Shore Shakespeare: Measure for Measure—September 4

Description

Location

Adkins Arboretum Pavilion

Date & Time

Sunday, September 4, 2022, 2–4 p.m.


With the morals of Vienna creeping ever lower, Duke Vincentio departs, leaving the self-righteous Angelo in charge. Soon, young Claudio finds himself sentenced to death for impregnating his fiancee. A plea from his sister Isabella, a novitiate on the brink of taking her vows, may be his only hope. Isabella faces an impossible choice: saving her honor or her brother's life. All the while, the Duke hovers about in disguise—monitoring, manipulating, and plotting for unforgiving justice.

Falling between comedy and tragedy, Measure for Measure is a tale of morals, humanity, justice, and forgiveness that could happen at any time and in any place. 

Bring a picnic if desired and a blanket or chair.
