Shakespeare Lives in the Shelter

The bold and sharp pen of Yorgos Skourtis brings us a new story. Shakespeare Lives in the Shelter is a dramatic, one actor recital that raises a voice against the monster of invincible authority. Nearly half a century after The Nannies, the writer continues to denounce the systemic mechanisms that perennially undermine happiness and push people to the fringes of society. The hero here is a citizen who continues to hold his ground even though he has withdrawn from everyday life.
