Shakespeare Translate: The Complete Works

Shakespeare Translate: The Complete Works

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2024

What happens when you put Shakespeare’s work through Google Translate 15 times? By deconstructing language, we can examine how we interpret classical text in the 21st century, while also allowing the Shakespearian text to let loose from its academic chains and be funny once more. Regardless of what language theatre is expressed through, we all seem to stop and listen to the rhythm, tempo and cadence. Lyrical quality within language provides us with a greater understanding of human empathy.
