Shakespeare meets Treasure Island in this swashbuckling comedy from all-female theatre company The Whole Pack, performed at the historic Mermaid Inn in Rye.
Pirate Queen Prospero has ruled over her strange and wondrous island of misfits and vagabonds, rogues and scallywags. Prospero's wild child Miranda has never known any other life. But when Prospero's past comes crashing into her new world, magic, mayhem and madcap plots are sure to ensue.
After a "dazzling debut" production of A Midsummer Night's Dream and a four-star run of Richard II at the Camden Fringe, The Whole Pack Theatre is back with an all-new winter tour. This pirate-themed show is a swashbuckling comedy, with magic, mayhem and sea shanties galore to warm the cockles of your heart on a cold winter's night.
The Whole Pack is an all-female Shakespeare company bringing something daring and different to Shakespeare to bring the magic of Shakespeare's plays to life for audiences.
Reviews of our previous productions include:
"The love of Shakespeare's language is apparent in its delivery, and the ensemble work well together, never missing a step. This company have great promise, and a close eye should be kept on their future work." -Caroline Worswick, North West End Theatre
"It's colourful, full of humour and very beautiful: one of those rare shows it which it was quite difficult not to smile with pleasure throughout." -Susan Elkin
