Set in London in 1605, the newly enthroned King James I commands Shakespeare to write a propaganda play to implicate the Catholics in the infamous Gunpowder Plot to blow up Parliament. To avoid the gallows and eternal damnation, Shakespeare must learn to “equivocate!” As Katie Jenkins reviewed, "The MLT production of Equivocation will have you on the edge of your seat, as you try to decipher who foiled the plot to overthrow the king, what happened to the dirt from the tunnel, and what will happen when the members of the famed Globe Theater Troupe disagree."
