Last Production

'Tis Pity She's a Whore - July 2009 at Northwall Theatre, Oxford

John Ford (1633)

– DESIRE – DESTRUCTION – DAMNATION –

“Love me or kill me, brother”
“Love me or kill me, sister”

Hippolita loves Soranzo; Soranzo loves Annabella; Annabella loves Giovanni; Giovanni loves Annabella. Giovanni and Annabella are brother and sister. So begins John Ford’s thrilling masterpiece of illicit desire, appalling destruction, and eternal damnation.

 

“There is a place, in a black and hollow vault,
Where day is never seen – there lies the wanton
On racks of burning steel whiles in his soul
He feels the torment of his raging lust.”
