Duchess of Malfi

Duchess of Malfi

Presented by The Hidden Room and Present Company Theatre at York Rite Masonic Hall

Considered one of the great revenge tragedies of all time and wildly popular in its day, Webster’s 1614 horror masterpiece will be brought back to life by the Hidden Room using period playing practices such as replicated candlelight as used for a Jacobean indoor playing space, live music, 1614-style garments (designed by the American Shakespeare Center’s Jenny McNee) and proper makeup techniques.  Most significantly, The Hidden Room will unveil their work on Renaissance Gesture Acting — the result of years of experimentation and research, as lead by the brilliant Dr. Farah Karim (head of Research and Education at Shakespeare Globe in London, and author of The Hand on the Shakespearean Stage.) After its Austin run, The Duchess of Malfi will bring this groundbreaking production to Shakespeare’s Globe Wanamaker Playhouse.

Starring: Liz Beckham, Brock England, Judd Farris, Valoneecia Tolbert, Robert Matney, Todd Kassens, Ronan Melomo, Amber Quick, Jill Swanson, Kenah Benefield, Rommel Sulit, Nathan Jerkins, Ryan Crowder, Sadie Schaeffer
