Judith

New play by Katie Bender, directed by Brendon Fox, with original plot concept by Livy Scanlon. Presented in partnership with Urbanite Theatre in Sarasota, Florida. Playing in rotating rep with Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night. What if Shakespeare had a sister? In this fast-paced solo show, Judith dresses in drag and heads to London to save her brother’s reputation. Finding herself in a patriarchal, politically-charged and deeply divided nation, she pursues work as a poet, discovering the pleasures and pitfalls of passing as the bard himself. Gallivanting in and out of character, Judith is a solo show that questions self-worth, ambition, and queer identity.
