The Duchess of Malfi
In an attempt to prevent the Duchess from being with the man she loves, her corrupt brothers go on a disturbing quest to destroy her. Rock and folk music infuse this vital classic.
Based on a true story, Webster's classic shifts from gentle romanticism to deepest, darkest cruelty. This visceral audio production intercuts the music of Jimi Hendrix and Laura Marling.
