With their mistress away, two male maids plunge into their darkest fantasies, in a twisted game, simmering with sexual tension, unravelling questions of modern slavery, gender identity, and power. The result is an absurd world where boundaries between reality and performance dissolve. Directed by Elinor Randle, this production will fuse opera, spectacle and movement in a lavish set designed by Ashley Shairp. Samuel Perez Duran and Cameron McKendrick star as the maids, with Jane Hogarth reprising her celebrated role as the Mistress from the 1992 staging. Bringing stalwarts of Liverpool’s theatre scene together from the last 40 years, this is the former Artistic Director’s final foray into making art at Unity Theatre.
