SCAPEGOAT
A Short Talking Heads Film
We were asked by the Petersfield Shakespeare Festival to produce two talking heads style short films as part of their 2020 summer season.
Due to national lockdowns, their usual open air festival was moved online and featured 10 new writings inspired by Romeo & Juliet.
Each piece sought to write the unwritten, and give some of Shakespeare's greatest characters more screen time. Where did Romeo get the poising? The Apothecary of course. One of the plays most instrumental components went unsaid in Shakespeare's version. But not here.
