By Miriama McDowell, Rob Mokaraka & Jason Te Kare
A world premiere fro T.O.A. Productions
Co-produced with Auckland Arts Festival.
Cellfish received development assistance from Playmarket and was originally produced by Auckland Arts Festival in association with Silo Theatre.
Shakespeare has power. Miss Lucy knows it. The themes in his work speak to her. Ambition. Jealousy. Deception. Disorder. She believes in the Bard’s stories, because they’ve helped her understand her own and she thinks they’ll help others find their way too.
When she brings her classes to a men’s correctional facility, unexpected talents are revealed and twisted fantasies surface. Directed by Silo Associate Artist Jason Te Kare, Cellfish is a gripping dark comedy that looks at what happens when you disturb the natural order of things.
