Generosity and greed; loyalty and opportunism – these modern themes are at the heart of this dramatic morality play. Wealthy Timon has been dispensing his bounty to the senators, mistaking flattery for friendship. Now bankrupt, Timon tests his so-called friends by seeking to borrow from them. When each refuses to help, this benevolent man turns bitter misanthrope. Director James Fagan Tait and composer Joelysa Pankanea have adapted
Timon of Athens into an ensemble production with all original music and movement and set it in modern Greece.
