Michaelmas Week 5

Pembroke Players presents an interpretative and immersive production based off of Tennessee Williams' Tony Award winning comedy "The Rose Tattoo". Music, puppetry, audience interaction and movement combine to create an original take on Williams comic love story set in an Italian-American village in Louisiana.

Telling the story of a lost love, sexual repression and expression, social conventions and the trials of faith, the play centers around Serafina Delle Rose's loss of her husband and the interplay with the curious characters of the other residents in her insular community.

A talented cast leaps between various roles both comic and tragic using audience interaction, physicality and laughter to spin a magical tale.
