Having been conjured up on the banks of the Thames, Shakespeare’s spirit is forced to rethink the way he has portrayed female characters in his plays. The five protagonists address him directly, whilst questioning his motives and the reasoning behind the situations he has placed them in. We are taken on a difficult yet enlightening journey: the stories of Catherine of Aragon, Ophelia, Titania, Lady Macbeth and Joan of Arc, that are still so relevant to the women of today.
