How far would you go for love? Step into the Globe’s Sam Wanamaker Playhouse and discover one of Shakespeare’s most desperate, ruthless heroines in All’s Well That Ends Well. Obsession and mind games unfold in this play about a woman who yearns for a husband and vows to win him by any means necessary. Rarely performed compared to some of Shakespeare’s most famous works, this late comedy is reimagined as a pacy thriller this winter.About All’s Well That Ends Well
When Helen cures the dying King, he grants her one wish: choose any man for a husband. There’s one that Helen has always had her eye on, but when she picks him, he cruelly rejects her. But this woman isn’t a quitter and she is determined to have the man of her dreams, no matter what it takes…”Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.” A noble motto, but how closely will Helena stick to it?
Shakespeare’s All’s Well That Ends Well is one of his later comedies - but like many of his more light-hearted works, a darker undertone and commentary on class, gender and sexuality are just below the surface. It is rarely performed compared to Much Ado About Nothing, The Taming of the Shrew and As You Like It, but this latest revival promises an exhilarating ride through obsession and deception that can easily match any modern romantic thriller.

The scenery is the actual theatre which is fab. Actors come in from back and on stage. Very basic modern costumes but appropriate and take nothing from the words being said. Music and other sounds also add power. Very good acting by the small cast. W Read more
