Following successful runs in Dublin, Toronto, Halifax, Calgary and Saint John, UNSEX’d is finally coming to the West Coast, presented by Lethbridge, Alberta's renowned queer theatre troupe, Theatre Outre, with the generous assistance of the frank, Vancouver's professional queer theatre company.
In a time when men played all the roles in theatre, two boy-players fight it out for the role of Lady Macbeth in Shakespeare's new play. Both will do anything, anything to catch the eye, and affections, of the playwright. UNSEX'd is a cheeky comedy / drama which contains nudity, lots of laughs and a dark-side.
OPENING NIGHT - Wednesday, December 2: PAY WHAT YOU CAN!
