A site specific reimagining of Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure that follows only the story of novice nun Isabella. Isabella finds betrayal in every corner of this male-written world that seeks to destroy her integrity, autonomy and faith, culminating in her forced marriage to and rape by her sole confidant —
— and that confidant’s murder by Isabella’s hand.
