Title: O Woe Is Me

Presented By: Tamborine Mountain Little Theatre

Genre: Comedy / Shakespeare Adaptation

Synopsis: O Woe Is Me is a bold, fast-paced comedy where some of Shakespeare's most famous characters collide in a world where tragedy, romance and complete absurdity exist side by side. Presiding over the chaos are three opinionated witches with absolutely no respect for the original script.

As scenes from Macbeth, Othello, Romeo & Juliet and Hamlet unravel in unexpected ways, Shakespeare finds himself challenged by the very characters he created. Combining original Shakespearean text with contemporary humour, physical theatre, music and outrageous comedy, O Woe Is Me celebrates the Bard while playfully reimagining his greatest works.
