You Won't See Me on the Poster
About
ou Won’t See Me on the Poster re-imagines the works of William Shakespeare through the lives of Shakespeare's "minor" characters. Throughout this one hour solo show, created by Kate Low and Sarah Entwistle, we see what the star crossed lovers look like from the Nurse's point of view in Romeo and Juliet; we muse over the wonders of life and death with the two Gravediggers from Hamlet; explore what happens when Feste the Clown lets go of his witty smile in Twelfth Night; meet the drunken Porter of Macbeth who might know a little bit more than he lets on and get to know characters from some of Shakespeare's lesser known works, such as Constance in King John.You Won’t See Me on the Poster invites us to explore the feeling of Sonder by bringing us into the lives of characters that are often perceived as existing simply to progress the central plot; devices rather than people with their own reality too. Through the notion of Sonder You Won't See Me on the Poster encourages us to look at each character for who they are: a whole person with a whole story to tell.
