Shylock

Gareth Armstrong’s solo performance, Shylock is an exploration of the funny, tragic and often unbelievable life of fiction’s most famous Jew. Told through the eyes of Shylock’s friend Tubal, the only other Jewish character in The Merchant of Venice, the show retells the story conjuring up the playwright, the players, the passion and the prejudices in the 400 years of Shylock’s turbulent life.
