Love, Death and Shakespeare is a bilingual theatre production by Three Pandas in a Trench Coat, a student and youth company. The show takes a Chinese twist on some of Shakespeare's most iconic stories, blending puppetry, music, movement and a unique mix of Western and Chinese theatre styles. Using only the Bard's own words, this bold and bloody Shakespeare remix asks a pointed question: why do we keep killing women? The show runs for 45 minutes at Upper Theatre (Round), Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over. Content warnings include distressing themes and scenes of violence.
