Cheek by Jowl Returns to BAM with John Ford’s 'TIS PITY SHE'S A WHORE, 3/20-3/31
UK theater company Cheek by Jowl returns to BAM with a new production of John Ford's Jacobean drama 'Tis Pity She's a Whore, presented in its U.S. premiere. A violent and bloody tragedy-and one of the most controversial plays in the English canon-it tells the tale of an incestuous love between Giovanni and his sister Annabella that ends in disaster and death. 'Tis Pity takes place against a backdrop of lust, vengeance, greed, and corruption.
'Tis Pity She's a Whore had its world premiere engagement in December at Les Gémeaux in Paris. The production was part of Australia's Sydney Festival in January and will play at London's Barbican from February 16 to March 10, prior to the BAM engagement. It will subsequently travel to Madrid in April.
