"All the onstage deaths in Shakespeare performed by ‘four of the greatest clowns working in Britain’". There are 75 onstage deaths in the works of William Shakespeare: From the Roman suicides in Julius Caesar to the death fall of Prince Arthur in King John; from the carnage at the end of Hamlet to snakes in a basket in Antony & Cleopatra. And then there’s the pie in Titus Andronicus. Spymonkey will perform them all; sometimes lingeringly, sometimes messily, sometimes movingly, sometimes musically, always hysterically. The four "seriously, outrageously, cleverly funny clowns" will scale the peaks of sublime poetry, and plumb the depths of darkest depravity. It may even be the death of them. Directed by Tim Crouch (I, Malvolio, An Oak Tree, Adler & Gibb), The Complete Deaths will be a solemn, sombre and sublimely funny tribute to the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death. Shakespeare Lives is an unprecedented global programme of events and activities celebrating William Shakespeare’s work on the occasion of the 400th anniversary of his death in 2016.
