Measure for Measure – A.C.T. Out Tour | Theater Productions

THE RUEFF AT THE STRAND THEATER 1127 MARKET ST, SAN FRANCISCO, CA, United States

A leader torn over what’s best for their city and its citizens. A deputy whose religious convictions are challenged by illegal desires. A novice nun forced to use deception to escape certain downfall. Vienna is a city seemingly besieged by immorality and vice, but when it comes to justice and policing, how far is too far? Measure for Measure explores the grey areas between heroes and villains, the political and the religious, corruption and righteousness— demonstrating that “some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall."

Measure for Measure is a part of ACT's A.C.T. Out Tour which uses Shakespeare as a tool for dialgoue and social change with a no-frills, bare-bones, honest, and modern performance of a classic tale.
