Troilus and Cressida

21 New Globe Way, London, SE1 9DT

Description

Heroes crash down to earth this autumn as Shakespeare’s bold and biting satire Troilus and Cressida comes to the Globe Theatre for five weeks only.

The legends of Greece and Troy are gripped by an epic war, fighting for honour and bravery. As a thrilling, action-packed battle rages around them, Trojan prince Troilus falls deeply in love with Cressida, and they swear their eternal love…

But wait! That’s NOT the play we’re about to see.

Fast forward seven years, and there’s no end in sight to the seemingly pointless, exhausting conflict. In Troy the manufactured glamour of war is losing its sheen, and not even their superstar Helen can restore its shine. The Greek camp is an apocalyptic wasteland. Achilles, their greatest warrior, has withdrawn in defiance, leaving the generals furious and Ulysses scheming with fresh designs. Meanwhile, the sharp-tongued cynic Thersites spares no one from her scorn, railing against the madness that surrounds her.
