Shylock

By Gareth Armstrong

Written and performed by Gareth Armstrong and directed by Frank Barrie, this acclaimed theatre production has toured all over the world from Stratford-upon-Avon to off-Broadway. Shylock explores the world of Shakespeare’s most controversial character, Shylock from the Merchant of Venice. Gareth, who has played leading roles with the RSC, in the West End and at Shakespeare’s Globe, first performed Shylock at the 1997 Edinburgh Fringe, receiving astonishing reviews in the national press and 5 Stars from the Festival critics.

“Armstrong is nothing short of incredible…It is an exceptional piece of theatre. Everyone should see it.” The Independent on Sunday, London.
