Theater: Vivian Beaumont

Imogen marries Posthumus against her father’s wishes. Posthumous is exiled and while there told that he has lost his bet that his wife would be faithful. He plots a jealous reunion and revenge. Unaware, Imogene travels to meet him but after some strange occurrences she gets into disguise as a man – in a drugged sleep in a cave with a man and his two sons she awakes next to a headless corpse. Cymbeline has been described variously as Shakespeare’s most surprising, anarchic and moving play.
