“You Won’t See Me on the Poster” Continues Resident Dilettante’s International Programming

You Won’t See Me on the Poster re-imagines the works of William Shakespeare through the

exploration of the lives of Shakespeare's 'minor' characters. Throughout this one hour solo show, created by Kate Low and Sarah Entwistle, we see what the star crossed lovers look like from the Nurse’s point of view; muse over the wonders of life and death with two Gravediggers; explore what happens when Feste the Clown lets go of his witty smile; and meet the drunken Porter of Macbeth who might know a little bit more than he lets on.

From the Bard’s most popular and most preposterous plays, You Won’t See Me on the Poster explores the inner lives of your favorite— or rather, soon to be favorite— cryers and clowns that have graced world stages for generations.

You Won’t See Me on the Poster invites us to explore the feeling of sonder by bringing us into the lives of characters that are often perceived as existing simply to progress the central plot; devices rather than people with their own reality too. Through the notion of Sonder You Won't See Me on the Poster encourages us to look at each character for who they are: a whole person with a whole story to tell.
