Peter Brook—considered to be one of the most influential stage directors alive—brings Shakespeare’s sonnets to life in his newest production. Performed by long-time collaborators Bruce Myers and Natasha Parry, Love is my sin reveals Shakespeare’s sonnets as intimate diaries: a key to his passions and jealousies, and his private questions about time, aging, and death. Reveling in the intense beauty of Shakespeare’s language, Brook continues his experiment in reducing theater to its essential form.
“For Peter Brook, theater is always an idea that is enriched by research, elaborated in rehearsal and then reduced to its essence onstage.” – The New York Times
“…the direction of Peter Brook is the real revelation. It may seem simple and unadorned to the point of invisibility, but you soon realize that every moment has been calibrated to deliver the maximum dose of truth.” - The Toronto Star (on Sizwe Banzi is Dead)
