The Merchant of Venice





















Glen Walford directs a recklessly hedonistic production of The Merchant of Veniceat the Queen’s Theatre, Hornchurch from 20 April – 12 May.

Costumes boasting a flamboyant New Romantic twist and a pulse-pounding rock-and-pop-inspired soundtrack set the scene for this comic thriller of love, honour and revenge. Songs and music are all performed live on stage by the Queen’s actor-musician company cut to the chase….


The Merchant of Venice runs at the Queen’s Theatre, Billet Lane, Hornchurch, from 20 April – 12 May. There are also short, free and informal Pre-Show Talksabout The Merchant of Venice for audiences unfamiliar with Shakespeare on 27 April, 3 or 12 May at 7pm.

Tickets cost £15 - £24. The Theatre is also offering a 20% discount off weekday performances to customers who have never booked to watch a Shakespeare production at the Queen’s before. Call the Box Office on 01708 443333 or book online at www.queens-theatre.co.uk
