Center House Theatre at Seattle Center, Center House Lower Level- When the markets are hot, Venice is a glamorous and high-living city. Fortunes are made in an instant and lost in a heartbeat. After striking a lethal bargain with the moneylender Shylock, Antonio faces the knife when his income is lost at sea. He must now rely upon a resourceful heiress-turned-lawyer, Portia, to prevent the deadly disaster. In a thrilling courtroom conclusion, the disguised young woman swings into action in one of Shakespeare's most popular and controversial plays.
The markets are trading high and Antonio and his buddies are living the high life on extended credit. But there are storms on the horizon and signs that the market is starting to crumble. Sound familiar? Associate Artist John Langs returns to Seattle Shakespeare Company to stage The Merchant of Venice at the Center House Theatre. With a low-priced preview on March 12, The Merchant of Venice opens on Friday, March 13 and will run through April 5.
