The best bits of the Bard - a night of gravitas and fun!
Enjoy selected readings from William Shakespeare, delivered by ten actors from around the district. This up-close-and-personal event is the first in a touring series that will see YAPPERS presenting their energetic readings in Yea, Yarck, Marysville and Ruffy ... and possibly other locations! Shows may feature different actors and pieces, adding colour to the series.
In a studio-like environment where actors stand right in front of the audience, our narrator Olivia Laurence, anchor for 'The Globe News Channel', will set the scene for each piece, explaining the character and context.
Whether you've always wondered why people still love Shakespeare's works (the second most read and quoted books after the Bible) after centuries; or if you're a fan longing to hear a classic monologue, this is the show for you.
Past: Sat 4 May - Yea; Sat 11 May - Marysville;
