Bringing high-quality theater to communities across the five boroughs, the Mobile Unit embodies Joseph Papp's dream of theater for all. This season, The Public's acclaimed Mobile Unit tour invites New Yorkers into a 21st century fairytale in Shakespeare's Cymbeline. Director Carl Cofield reimagines Shakespeare's epic romance as a familiar yet fantastical story. When Imogen, princess and heir to the throne, secretly marries her true love, her father, the King, banishes her husband. Unleashed jealousy, weaponized ego, and distorted pride trip up every character in this contemporary version of an age-old tale of love and power. Will Imogen choose her love or familial duty?
