SHYLOCK
Guy Masterson - International Master of Solo Performance
As one of only two Jewish male characters in the whole of Shakespeare, Shylock (Merchant of Venice) has always divided opinion. Is he a villain or a victim?
This award winning, poignant, powerful yet humorous performance brings us Shylock afresh in one of the most globally successful solo shows of the last decade.
Guy Masterson demonstrates his brilliance in a performance that celebrates the beauty of language, the power of history and the magic of theatre.
Shylock, for one performance only, delivers everything you want from theatre: an informative and thought provoking story, a solid whack of comedic entertainment and a stunning display of talent.
