A PRODUCTION FROM THE MOOTED THEATRE COMPANY

‘TIS PITY SHE’S A WHORE

'tis pity she's a whoreby John Ford
directed by Mark France

'TIS PITY SHE’S A WHORE by John Ford is a dark disturbing slice of Jacobean tragedy, a play in which forbidden passions and unspeakable crimes collide explosively with tragic effect.

Like Tarantino writing Romeo and Juliet, this is an energetic, uncompromising masterpiece of British theatre. Despite its age, the play depicts a world beset by discrimination, bigotry and censorship, issues that resonate as much these days as they ever did. Mooted’s intense production promises to raise as many questions as it answers.

Mooted's previous production, David Mamet's A LIFE IN THE THEATRE, achieved critical acclaim and sold out houses across Yorkshire.

'Mooted's production hits home strongly...there is plenty of life in this theatre'
– The Press, York.

'The Mooted Theatre Co. open with a confident and well-crafted debut...their future is only to be anticipated.'
- The British Theatre Guide
