Shakespeare’s Globe announces the cast of Antony and Cleopatra, directed by Blanche McIntyre (Twelfth Night: For One Night Only, Globe), with Nadia Nadarajah and John Hollingworth as Cleopatra and Mark Antony.

The full cast comprises Mark Donald, William Grint, Nadeem Islam, Gabin Kongolo, Peter Landi, Gabriella Leon, Rhiannon, Esther McAuley, Zoë McWhinney, Daniel Millar, Bert Seymour, and Tom Simper.

Blanche McIntyre directs Shakespeare’s colossal tragedy of love and duty in a bilingual production. Some scenes will be performed in British Sign Language, some in Spoken English and some scenes will use both languages. Each performance will be captioned throughout. Please see the attached press release for more information.

       

Director Blanche McIntyre says: “I am so happy to be working on this extraordinary play with an equally brilliant cast. I hope that our bilingual production will shed light on the two cultures that the play presents us with and offers a new way of making theatre at the Globe.”

Associate Director Charlotte Arrowsmith says: “Antony and Cleopatra provides an insight to a bilingual world where two languages and cultures collide, but passion and love overrides. This play shows how hearing and deaf creatives as a collective can enrich ‘any story’ with representations of real life. We endeavour to prove a more unified world, where two languages and cultures come together, here at the Globe.”
