Migrant Shakespeare
  • Brighton Fringe

Think you know your Shakespeare? Think again! This is Shakespeare as youve never seen him before " trippingly on the tongue... Migrant actors take on the Bard, reinterpreting his words in alien environments you will never have imagined before. They give his iconic characters a new life, migrating them into the roles assigned to outsiders by society. Hamlet is a meat-packer, King Lear a construction worker, Caliban a hotel cleaner, Lady Macbeth a housewife looking after children, and Shylock washes the dishes in a restaurant. This is no one Bard: Shakespeare belongs both to no one and to everyone.Adapted and directed by Naz YeniEditing by Asli TokmanDramaturgy by Stephanie TillotsonHamlet (Hamlet) Tuana ArayiciJacques (As You Like It) Zlf Kaplan Edmund (King Lear) Gzde IsikLady Macbeth (Macbeth) Glisstan SarbasLauncelot Gobbo (Merchant of Venice) Semba TekinKing Lear (King Lear) Tuncay AkpinarCaliban (The Tempest) Seda elikKatherine (Taming of the Shrew) Eser RzgarShylock (Merchant of Venice) Deniz OkuProspero (The Tempest) zlem TasMusic by Jan IitakSung by Huseyin ErdoganPoster Design by Can AksoyImage by Berrin Bugay LawlerProduction Assistant Bora BicacicPart of the C ARTS programme, a home for international independent arts, showcasing creativity, celebrating diversity.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD
The Make A Difference Trust fights HIV & AIDS one stage at a time. Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
