Losing Venice (NHB Modern Plays)
An epic fable set in the faraway Spanish Golden Age.When a Duke from Spain embarks on a military adventure to save Venice and his reputation, the consequences are not what he expects...Jo Clifford's play Losing Venice is a joyously original, witty take-down of dangerously daft machismo and the deranged behaviour of countries that have lost an empire and still not yet found a role.Losing Venice was first performed at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, in 1985. It was revived at the Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond, in September 2018.'A truly outstanding first stage play' - New Statesman
