'Troilus & Cressida'

venue

Shakespeare House

Dates

20th - 21st March 2015

Director

Ian Arnot

In March of 2015 we presented 'Troilus & Cressida' for the first time in the history of Derby Shakespeare Theatre Company. Using the form of a rehearsed reading our talented cast brought the romance, tragedy and drama of the Trojan War to life in Shakespeare House under the expert direction of Ian Arnot.

This proved a rare chance to see a little-known and often misunderstood Shakespeare play, one that we all hope we'll be able to produce again in the years to come.
