Agnes de Castro

“Gods! Must she have all hearts which I would claim?”

Agnes de Castro. That’s the name on everyone’s lips: the Princess who loves her, the Prince who longs for her, the noble villains who lust for her. And Elvira, whose only thought is vengeance on the woman who has everything that should be hers.

Back by popular demand for a limited run, March 13-22 only! Audiences at Head Trick’s reading of Catherine Trotter’s 1695 revenge tragedy had one question – “Why isn’t everyone doing this play?” Now, Agnes de Castro returns in a full production!

“In a time where stage productions seem to be getting bigger and more technical, there is something magical about watching an exceptional script brought to life through skilled performance and direction. Head Trick Theatre always manages to create unique worlds and experiences using very few sets and effects, and it’s reliably satisfying to watch…This play truly has something for everyone — intrigue, murder, deception, sword fights and one of the most compelling villains this reviewer has ever seen…Plays about palace intrigue and manipulation are not rare, but when they’re well done, they can be so satisfying. [Agnes de Castro] is an excellent example of a play that’s both well-written and not so often performed that people will be tired of it.” —BroadwayWorld
