HISTORICAL BILL
Our second show of the year is our Historical Bill, Sappho of Lesbos, directed by Tate Fountain.
Sappho of Lesbos is a nineteenth century play that explores ancient subject matter: in particular the events leading up to the death of the famous 'Tenth Muse' and original Poetess, Sappho. Featuring a cast of diverse backgrounds and archetypes, the play deals with questions of celebrity culture, of ambition, of contentedness, of who we cherish and how we show them; of competition and covetousness and how far we will go, how tender – and, conversely, how unhinged – we will become in pursuit of love. There is music, there is comedy, there is poetry, there is tragedy.
