UCI Department of Drama Stage 2 "Measure for Measure" May 1, 2008

May 1- May 10, 8 pm
matinee performances: May 3 & 10, 2 pm

Deception and truth. Corruption and virtue. Justice and mercy. They all hang in the balance in Measure for Measure. When the Duke of Vienna abandons his city, he places his zealous deputy in charge. Who will the puritanical Angelo serve, faced with a city rife with prostitution and sexual excess, as he delivers his uncompromising application of justice? Life, death, chastity and truth swing the scales in equal measure in Shakespeare's classic intrigue.
