About This Show

A trio of top counsellors psychoanalyse some of the Bard’s most well-known characters in a riveting series of uproarious encounters. Delve into the psyches of Hamlet, Titania, Lord and Lady Macbeth. A madcap comedy from Ruff Trade Theatre, thoroughly accessible yet peppered with enough textual references to satisfy the scholars. Why is Hamlet so riddled with doubts and ruminations? What strange childhood trauma led to Queen Titania’s wanton fixation with donkeys? The answers are all here in a series of revealing counselling sessions made open to the public for the first time. Watch in awe as a trio of top analysts exorcise the demons from the Bard’s finest and get to the heart of the Iambic Id.
