Cowards!

KQ-HQ (USA/UK)

A modern Shakespearean tragedy set over one night in a shared kitchen, Cowards! follows the charged interactions between Daphne and Oleander, two masters of disguise who must conceal hiding their feelings for each other. as they reconcile and recalibrate in the wake of a recent emotional bombshell. Playfully engaging the audience through asides and modern spins on the classics, the pair dance around the elephant in the room. They are two cowards locked in a battle of wits, at their wits’ end.
