Whittaker stars as The Duchess, a daring and powerful widow who defies her family's wishes by remarrying beneath her class. However, when her brothers, driven by insurmountable greed and rage, discover her second marriage they unleash a series of cruel and devastating punishments against her. But will their harrowing atrocities come back to haunt them?
Written and directed by award-winning Zinnie Harris (Macbeth (an undoing)), this "pacy and intense" (Telegraph) adaptation of John Webster's drama, The Duchess of Malfi is "acutely right for our times" (The Times) as it explores the depths of the patriarchy against female resistance.
A bloody revenge tragedy made marvelously modern- The Telegraph
