Southwest Shakespeare Company is delighted to present Broadway’s Hadestown star, Patrick Page, in his solo performance All the Devils Are Here: How Shakespeare Invented the Villain

From Richard III to Prospero, Shakespeare’s villains are complex, crafty, cunning and seductively real, thanks to the performance of acclaimed Shakespeare performer, Grammy winner, TONY nominee and Hadestown star, Patrick Page.

“Hell is empty, and all the devils are here” in this enchanting solo performance that delves into the complex psychology of Shakespeare’s most notable villains. Moving swiftly and chronologically, Page will trace the evolution of Shakespeare's malefactors from the mere two-dimensional to the complex precursors of the modern psychopath.
