Shakespeare had been retold so many times, spoken through different mouths. İn English Royal Court, jesters were employered as professionals fools. Because anything they said was by definition "a jest" and "the uttering of a fool" they could speak frankly on controversial issues in a way in which anyone else would have been severely punished for. Monarchs understood the usefulness of having such a person at their side so, to some of them was given great honours at court.

Let us speak again, through the mouth of these characters, the stories so many times told.

Two Jesters, "wise enough to play the fool", have gotten on writter's table, mixing his papers.
Rebels and means they will act Shakespeare's characters, reading the stories in their own way, ironical or comical, sometimes touched by tragic feelings. Together with the third one, the servant, they can be as evil as witchies from Macbeth, because as them, they always says the unseen truth.

Their aim is to make people laugh.













The theatre is the mirror of the world, as the Master said, so if you see a surprising face in the mirror have the wisdom to laugh.
