All Is But Fantasy: Juliet, Richard III image
Synopsis:

Some people make history.
 
Lady Macbeth, Juliet, Emilia and Richard III.
 
Each has a finger on the self-destruct button, sometimes by accident, sometimes by design. But why should loving too hard, aspiring too high or living too fast cut the story short?
 
Award-winning artist Whitney White explodes into The Other Place with a groundbreaking theatrical event, featuring four of Shakespeare’s most famous characters.
 
Their stories are revisited across two high-energy gig-theatre performances, catalysed by a red-hot soundtrack of musical genres from rock and soul to pop and gospel. With the three Witches as backing singers, one question comes up time and again:
Can you have ambition and love and still be alive in Act V?
Enjoy these two performances back-to-back on a single day, across two separate days (in any order), or simply as standalone plays for an equally breathtaking experience.
