Soop presents The Revenger's Tragedy

'Revenge is sweeter than life itself. So think fools.' Juvenal

Vindice's girl is dead. Murdered by a lusty old Duke who can't keep it in his trousers. Now Vindice wants revenge. In pursuit of vengeance, Vindice must disguise himself in a world of vice and deceit, seduce his sister and plot a grotesque execution. And he's not the only one out for blood... Four actors take you on a gleeful journey of revenge in Soop's comic interpretation of Middleton's masterpiece. Striking masks, original music, extraordinary puppets and Soop's highly theatrical style will reinvigorate Jacobean theatre for a new audience.

Praise for The Revenger's Tragedy:

***** 'Commedia, League of Gentlemen style! It's a rare production which will make you laugh all the way through a play first performed in 1606! If SOOP are performing near you do not miss the opportunity to see this.' Remotegoat


Praise for Soop:

'The Soop Productions team are like a pack of Dickensian orphans with only their imagination and cunning to keep us entertained. Fortunately this is where they flourish... the way the actors use minimal props and their bodies to create innovative and convincing scenery is admirable.' The Stage
