With her lover banished and her family torn apart, princess Imogen journeys across Britain to fight to clear her name.

Action-packed and full of twists and turns, Cymbeline is an epic adventure with Shakespeare’s most ambitious plot. Featuring live Foley sound by James Ard, a company of fifteen actors, and some crucial audience participation, this staged reading invites you to share in the theater making process and essential storytelling.
