Measure for Measure

Crow’s Theatre Presents a House + Body Production
Directed and Adapted by Christopher Manousos
Based on the play by William Shakespeare

Sep 15, 2026 - Oct 4, 2026
Studio Theatre

Shakespeare’s tale of justice vs. morality, live on air.

Returning to Crow’s Theatre after its acclaimed limited run is House + Body’s bold reimagining of Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure, setting this urgent story of justice and morality inside a chaotic modern sound studio.

When Isabella’s brother is sentenced to death, she embarks on a journey to save his life but is forced to confront a system where authority wavers and moral certainty erodes. Watch as five actors juggle twenty roles live on air, racing through a high-stakes broadcast as offstage antics spiral as wildly as the drama that unfolds.

Fast, sharp, and darkly funny, this Measure for Measure asks who holds power – and who pays the price.

Featuring: Jamie Cavanagh, Katherine Gauthier, Sébastien Heins, Beck Lloyd, and Danté Prince.
