SHAKESLAM 2025

Written by William Shakespeare, Georgia Casimir & The Company | Directed by Sophie Cottle

Photography by Jack Offord | Image Design by Bones Schmidt (student)

Overview
ShakeslamI

Fairies live amongst humans, witches walk with soldiers and false kings wear false crowns; in Shakespeare’s universe, all is certainly not as it seems. So, what does it mean to be seen? Where does the line between reality and magic begin to blur? And how does the world change when we look at it differently?

From writing new pieces inspired by Shakespeare, to radically re-staging his work, Shakeslam is an experiment in cutting, cropping, remixing and, sometimes, throwing Shakespeare out the window!
