(2016 production of Hamlet)

★★★★★

"A high energy and gripping 2 hours"

(The Stage)

(2017 production of Merry Wives of Windsor)

★★★★★

"a clear adaptation and abundant talent"

(Remotegoat.com)

patron Dame Judi Dench

Shakespeare’s last, and great, play is a triumphant compilation of intrigue, magic, and humour. Prospero, an exiled Duke with supernatural powers, creates a great storm which sees his enemies shipwrecked on his island. Magic abounds, plots are exposed, and a colourful array of characters gain their deserts. Fascinating entertainment.

Details of the tour will be available soon.
