Shakespeare: Timon Of Athens
‘A parable for our times’ (Daily Telegraph) In a world driven by greed, what do we truly value? Timon has it all – money, influence, friends. Surely it can’t last? When the money runs out, Timon soon finds her influence and friends have also gone. Left alone, she flees Athens to take refuge in the woods, cursing the city she once loved. Simon Godwin directs Kathryn Hunter as Timon in this dark satire, which forces us to question where does happiness really lie? ‘A searing central performance’ (The Guardian)
