Isabella stands on the brink of a new life – what will it be? Nun? Duchess? Or is there another alternative?
With three men wanting her virginity, each for their own purpose, can she still retain the power of choice over her own body? Just how much control does a woman ultimately have over her own destiny?
Beginning where Shakespeare’s “Measure for Measure” ends, “Beyond Measure” is a provocative multi-media production. Fiery, feminine and fiercely inventive, this is theatre at its most engaging…
and you don’t need to know “Measure for Measure” to love it!
“… what’s mine is yours, and what is yours is mine”.
Measure for Measure” Act 5 Sc1

Press Quotes:
"Rina Mahoney as Isabella gives a compelling performance..." The Stage
"The blank verse, using contemporary language was beautiful...." Pocklington Post
"Come December, critics’ thoughts turn to the traditional ‘End of Year’ list. It would be a pity if Beyond Measure – traversing the country on a low key tour - slipped under the radar: In its own small way, it’s as perfectly constructed as a Faberge egg. This is a production to restore ones faith in the power and beauty of theatre."
