Watermill Theatre and Old Vic Productions by Propeller. Shakespeare's brilliantly surreal and controversial romantic comedy gives a glimpse into the complex relationship between men and women, and subservience and obedience within marriage. A man playing a boy dresses up as a girl and a girl played by a boy dresses up as a bride in this delicious story full of mistaken identities and transformations. Propeller is fast becoming the most notable Shakespeare specialists in the world, Propeller's performances sizzle with energy and imagination. Propeller's all-male ensemble format is based on Elizabethan tradition - men play the roles of women, just as they did in Shakespeare's time. Performing two of Shakespeare's greatest comedies of mistaken identity, Propeller reveal a human truth, exploring beautifully how being in love with the wrong person reveals genuine feeling.
