Until 17 December<br />
Damned by Despair<br />
by Tirso de Molina<br />
in a new version by Frank McGuinness<br />
‘Beautiful flashes of redemption and grace.’<br />
evening standard<br />
‘A lively and irreverent new version<br />
by Frank McGuinness.’<br />
Financial Times<br />
‘Glisters with invigorating wit... for only £12<br />
a pop thanks to the Travelex season, it’s a<br />
damned interesting way to spend an evening.’<br />
Daily Telegraph<br />
saintly Paulo discovers he’s doomed to share the<br />
fate of a complete stranger, enrico. Then he meets<br />
enrico for himself and realises he’s evil incarnate.<br />
if he’s damned, is Paulo too?<br />
Damned by Despair, written in 1635 by the great<br />
spanish dramatist Tirso de Molina, is brought to<br />
vivid life in Frank McGuinness’ new version.<br />
The subversive and at times riotous exploration<br />
of faith and the transformative power of love<br />
races across the italian landscape, relishing the<br />
unpredictability of fate, an extraordinary array of<br />
characters and their very real dilemmas.<br />
