Shakespeare’s Kings and Clowns and The Return of Sherlock Holmes will be presented in Dubrovnik by the London theatre company Performance Exchange. The performances, produced by the Dubrovnik Shakespeare Festival, will be held in the Art Radionica Lazareti which is just outside the gates of the Old City of Dubrovnik and a stunning location for Shakespeare. The artistic director of the Dubrovnik Shakespeare Festival, Michael Lederer, commented that “Dubrovnik Shakespeare Festival continues to seek funding to mount a full-scale Festival in Dubrovnik. But we are not waiting. We are already rich in enthusiasm and talent, and we have enough financial resources so that whether in Berlin or in Dubrovnik or in London, DSF is continuing to promote theatre as an integral part of the most beautiful town in the world.” These two performances are innovative and the Shakespeare’s Kings and Clowns piece is an audience participation play.
Shakespeare’s Kings and Clowns….a raucous and irreverent look at the Bard’s best bits. Kings, clowns, thieves, rogues, tarts and ACTORS!!! Great fun!
The Return of Sherlock Holmes….the great detective Sherlock Holmes (presumed dead) returns to London to solve a most mysterious murder and confront the last of the Moriarty gang of criminals.
