ROVING SHAKESPEARE
The Sea Voyage by John Fletcher and
Phillip Massinger
The Sea Voyage paired with Shakespeare's Tempest form Roving Shakespeare's nautical double feature, splitting the company into two casts of five actors who then enact the entirety of each show's characters. Roving Shakespeare used clever staging and minimal properties in their original telling of this play. The Sea Voyage tells a love story, populated with shipwrecked French pirates, castaways, an island full of Amazon women, and wannabe cannibals.
Angelina LaBarre directs The Sea Voyage with Bobby Byers, Liz Lodato, Brian Maxwell, Jamie Weaver, and Jarom Brown.
"The five actors fill the stage, becoming scenery, and creating a soundscape in more imaginative and stimulating ways than if there were a full cast of actors on the stage with a full set,” saysThe Sea Voyage’s director.
