Measure for Measure

Measure for Measure

City Lit Theater
1020 W. Bryn Mawr Avenue Chicago

In this saucy and salacious take on the classic tale, Measure for Measure transports us to the debauched and depraved city of Shakespeare's imagined Vienna. In order to curb the city’s reckless ways, the Duke places the seemingly morally upright Angelo in power in his absence. When Angelo gives in to the temptation to abuse his power, the virginal Isabella must choose between accepting his advances and sacrificing her brother’s life.

Presented by Promethean Theatre Ensemble
