Tragic Magic

Everybody needs a little help sometimes - including Shakespearean characters. Join Puck (a.k.a Robin Goodfellow) as he becomes a self-appointed, self-help guru helping an assortment of recognisable Shakespearean mortals and supernatural beings through their predicaments. TRAGIC MAGIC is a light-hearted look into the fatal flaws of Shakespeare’s key characters and an approachable examination into Shakespeare’s knack for presenting the human condition timelessly and succinctly.
