TAMBURLAINE THE GREAT by Christopher Marlowe
- LAZARUS THEATRE COMPANY - TRISTAN BATES THEATRE
25th August - 12th September 2015, The Tristan Bates Theatre.
Dictator, lover, husband and murderer, Tamburlaine the Great, hits the stage in an all new gripping, physical and brutal production.
Controversial writer, Christopher Marlowe’s fierce and ferocious play follows Tamburlaine and his thirst for power, the crown is within his reach and nothing, not even God, can stand in his way.
An ensemble company brings both parts, one and two, to the stage over one evening.
Tamburlaine the Great marks our return to the Tristan Bates after our sell out productions of Shakespeare’s Troilus & Cressida andCoriolanus in 2014 and our award-winning production of The Tragedy of Mariam in 2013.
